pulls to the right?

Do all toons have a way of getting water out? I have a 2003 Lowe Suncruiser. It's on a trailer right now. This morning I went to raise the tongue of the trailer to let rain water drain off the back instead of the front. I thought I heard the sloshing of water in one (if not both) toons. How do I get it out?

Take you a 1" cold chisel, you know, the kind used to work on metal. Then, with a 3 lb hammer, bust thru the bottom of each pontoon log. THAT technique will always result in allowing the water to drain out.
OH, you wanted to *use* the boat again... In that case, I think most pontoons have a screw-in plug at the rear of each log. Unscrew the plug, and raise the front of the boat, and let it drain.... Oh, you probably want to take the boat out of the water first!

The plug(s) may be at the top. Usually this is a 1/2" NPT plug and 5/8" or even 3/4" vinyl tube will fit in the hole. You can get a siphon going and pull most of it out, then use a shop vac to get the rest.

My plugs are under the deck and hard to get to so when I was getting a crack fixed (the source of the leak) I had the welder install 1/2" plugs out where I could get a clean shot at them.

Now I can look in the hole to see what the water situation is.

Thank you, I found the plugs on top of the toons when I crawled under the boat. I'll get a siphon and see what I can get out. It appears to only be in the starboard toon.

It would be nice if the plugs were in the back to make it easier to drain.

That is why I put the ones in I have. This was just a piece of 1/4" think aluminum that I drilled and tapped for 1/2" NPT and had them welded in place.
If I had a 3/4" NPT tap handy I would have used 3/4" plugs.
