I don't have any advise for you but I think if that happens to my boat I'd tell my fat ass friends not to sit on it anymore.
Sorry--sometimes I can't help myself :evilb:

If it is a 29 outlaw they are made that way.

My 29 is the same I think it is to keep from sliding our oily a$$ off the back of the small sun pad. And it makes a good place to rest the beers!!

Are you running the hatch actuator too long on the down stroke?

When mine comes down level I let off the button. If you stay on the button it will pull the center lower then the sides?

Just a thought.

How olds the boat? I had to replace the wood that's inside the engine hatch on my old Baja after a few years. Water gets inside it and makes it VERY heavy and weak causing the sag. That and the bolts used to hold down the bolsters were my only complaints with my Baja :D

By the way, I was taught what Doc is talking about a long time ago. It saves the ram too. I still do it on my Cig. Just want to have the engine hatch come down and touch the seat, not drive it down hard.

That is a good thought. I thought everyone knew that anyway. Guess not. :drink:
