[quote=tominpa]Once you apply buoyancy the hull will drain by gravity through the plug or a hole if that is what happened. I would use an inflatable to raise it easily. If you have inner-tubes that could be placed around the bow and rudder assembly, you could use a compressor (or compressed air) and air-line to add air and slowly bring it all above water level to where the beach wheels will be easy to use and the weight will not cause damage. Other ideas are any kind of air-bladder that can be inserted into the hull port, rubber deflated rafts, or whatever you have on hand.
Assuming the plug is pulled, you can put low air pressure (5-8 lbs) through the port lid and displace the water. I'm not familiar with these hulls, but I know we sometimes check for leaks using low pressure air.<!-- editby --><em>Edited by tominpa on Dec 27, 2016 - 07:57 PM.</em><!-- end editby --> [/quote]
