Casey,

What kind of paint did you use in your bilge? I'd like to paint mine also. Do you have any lessons learned to make the job easier?

Thanks,
Tim

More leaks!!

Post by argonaut »

OK, after last weekend's thunder storm I checked and had a gallon of rainwater in my starboard aft bilge.
Seems to be running along the cockpit's liner all the way aft, then dripping down into the bilge, there was also some directly under the binnacle entry.

Any ideas of good leak sources? The lockers wouldn't leak that way would they?

on my 2002 :macx: I was missing a 'dam' on the hole under the pedestal that would let water run into the liner in the rear berth, then down into the bilge.
