same thing here. since your boat is a 2003 & mine a 1998...it seems Seaswirl has not fixed the problem. i am going to take the bow rail off (one post @ a time) and caulk it & tighten. the rub rail is a different story. Seaswirl used wood in the rub rail seam in 98. if it can be fixes...i'll fix it. the problem is finding what to fix.
i'm not knocking Seaswirl...i may buy another in a year or two...BUT...i want a boat that holds it's mud. am i asking too much?
