"Update" I've owned CRACKERJACK for 2 months now , due to life and other duties I haven't got to spend much time aboard . Having a good look her over the last few days and taking stock of everything that the previous owner had stowed aboard , I removed about 100 lbs of cleaning equipment and spares and tools out of the port side mid ships compartments . Moved the spare anchor & chain , tool kit & from the port side to under the helm seat . The swim platform now sits parallel to the surface of the water now.
There was also a tow rope aboard , if I go to the Keys from my location . I might put that back on board . But all the spares & cleaning stuff and 3/4 of the tools can stay in my dock box . Sea Tow will tow me back to my dock from anywhere close to home . So with just a little weight redistribution, CRACKERJACK is cruising on an even keel ??? .
Now on to the next project . "The Icerette "
