Thanks, Matt. If the drain plugs let rain in can you close them while in storage? Is there another vent? On my Wave hulls, high up on the inside just under the tramp, there are little white plugs. Are they vents? Something left from construction?

What about re-sealing the ports under the seat pads? Is that routine mainainence? Are there any replaceable parts there? I haven't had the pads off so I can't imagine what these ports might look like. I can't feel anything through the pads.

By the way, my purple deck pads bleed purple dye. Anyone else have a purple butt?
