2007 LSV Trailer Jack

...and then when you cut an access hole in the center locker, you'll find a whole new stash of trapped water. This might be the flaw referred to above, I wouldn't call it a shelf so much as a bulkhead that has a few ways for water to get in but not out. Otherwise I don't think that the transom plug location or hull design is flawed or significantly different than any other inboard that I've seen.

the only way to get ALL the water out of my 07LSV is to grab my small shop vac and suck it out. No matter how steep the ramp or driveway is it won't all come out. Definitely a design flaw for sure. I don't like to have any water in the engine compartment over an extended period of time because from what I have read the steering cable will start to corrode and you will have to replace it.
