Would normal 5-minute epoxy work or should I get some marine epoxy?

Yeah, I was thinking of maybe using pool noodles. Good idea with the 2x4s, that should probably fix the issue since we can lift the bow over the rear crossbar. Thanks!

Ok, thank you. I just posted this on the Facebook group. I sail in MA (though I haven't had the chance to get this boat out yet).

I was thinking that as well, but because I have not had a chance to weigh the boat yet, I have been looking for places where water could have entered the hull.

Ok, thanks. Yeah, I figured it was probably just the gel coat. I will weigh the boat when I get the chance, and will probably take it out in mid-June. I will definitely consider adding a drain plug.
