Looking at a 2003 lsv

[bkearney]

We found an lsv for a good price. As a new to dd boats, and moombas, I have a couple of questions.

1: the swim platform with me (220) is about an inch underwater. Is this normal?

2: the hull has some clouding. Any idea if this will come off?

3: the vinyl has some mildew. Same question.

4: the boat has pretty big bow rise when the wake plate is up. Is this normal?

Thanks!

1. depends on where all the wieght is at in the boat, but most likely is norm
2. it could come off with a good wax job and maybe some wet sanding, or the gell coat could be going south. depends how bad the clouding is
3. same with the vinyl stains. some will come off with mold and mildew remover and ALOT of elbow grease, and some no matter how hrd you try will not come off
4.bow rise is exactly what is supose to happen when the wake plate is all the way up. dont go over 30 with the plate up. alot better ride at high speeds with it down
