I found where my boats leaking!

That's some tough epoxy in both cases. I,ll need to remember those for future projects.

Triggered my curiosity as well. After watching the G-flex instruction video, this comparison video popped up, so I watched it as well. Good comparison albeit a different application.

I have no direct experience with either product. View attachment 71265

Thanks for posting Dave. I'll give this a look too!

My Lund is leaking at the bow. A new boat is out of the question! Any suggestions are appreciated! My first thought is j-b weld the seam inside and out. Maybe add a Keel Guard over that. Anyone ever use one of those ?

Is it just bad rivet? Or is there a crack? A buddy had a StarCraft welded along the “keel” seam welded twice. It’s cracked twice.

If it’s just leaking around a rivet I would remove it and then inject it w resin and re buck the rivet.

I'm not sure Tony. It seems like the area where the formed bow plate and the keel come together. Come spring I'll do the old, fill the boat with water and see where it drips.
