Wasn't much missing it, lol. Every couple hours on the water last few trips, I was having to turn bilge on for several minutes. Guess it would be smart of me to add another on with a float switch🤣

Just takes one log to bring a flawed weld to the surface. At least it wasn’t as bad as some I’ve seen. That technique is really useful for riveted boats.

I've got a 21 G3 Bay 20 that I have maybe 50 hrs on it. Just put the boat in the water and docked it at our place, came out a couple hrs later to hear the auto bilge running. I wouldn't think much of it but I had ran the bilge before I covered it for the night. Clearly taking on water, and I double checked the plug to make sure it was secure. Happened on another vacation but thought it was just from running from dock to house. Not happy to say the least

Load it on the trailer, get all your electronics high enough to not hurt and put water in it. See where your leak is and mark it. That new of one, I'd make them warranty it for sure. Mine was an older model, but had only 8 hours on it when I bought it two years ago. I emailed G3 about it because it had low hours. Just didn't expect that type quality of their boats. They basically said have a nice day, hope you get it fixed so you can get after the fishes🤣🤣🤣. I'll never again buy another G3, or recommend them for that matter, just going off their reply back to me. That said I do like the way it fishes and love the center console. I got no plans of getting rid of it.

@@godscountryhuntingfishing1638 its under warranty, it's going in Friday to hopefully get fixed, at least diagnosed so if they have to order parts I can use it in the mean time. I started with a brand new Alumacraft Bay 20 this year and it took on water amongst several other problems, so they took it back and gave me the G3. Its been a long year with boats for me, especially that my dealer was a 11 hour drive one way to deal with all the issues

@@iowamatt2519 Man sorry to hear about all the issues. That's definitely not what Sportsmen expect when they spend hard earned money to enjoy the outdoors. Hopefully they get you lined out and back on the water. Hopefully you get good service. The decisions we make on purchases like that are life altering. Our return investment is a lifetime of enjoyment, so hang in there!!

Yeah, in a way I wish mine would have been something like that, but truth is those in my boat would have been harder to fix than the weld was. We got lucky it was in a good spot. G3 was no help. I emailed them and they basically blew me off in their reply from customer service. I'll be sure to refrain from doing business or advertising for them in the future, LoL

Had a few delays getting the wood sawed, and we've had to put all our vegetables up out of the garden last two weeks. I think I may have enough old material left over from Dad's build that he actually sawed out. I may go ahead and may a video using that material, then when the Lumber is ready to draw, do another video taking it from Log to trap.
