you can only have rot if you look for it. Don't poke the bear. :)

Lol... probably great advice that I'm too stupid to take :D

So is everyone too afraid for me and what I might find to tell me how and where to look for rot?
It's ok, I'm already bracing myself. You won't spoil my week, I know I didn't buy a $100k boat and knew I'd always be working on it.

Next question will probably be "How do I fix it?" Haaa!!

Maybe I should start a new thread? I didn't think this was a hi-jack and was relevant, but maybe I'm wrong and being rude.

What i have seen is rot in transom and longitudestringers.You can drill some small holes in the stringers and see if they are wet.Hope you will not find any rot.Good luck

why not do an ultra sound or humidity test, isn't that what boat surveyors do, and dealers do it too.
