Hi all, I'm still having an
issue with water getting in to the front bouyancy compartment.
I've checked all the keelband screws and re-sealed them but
it's still filling up. After some wild weather today it had
loads in it. But with the hull dry afterwards nothing is
coming back out. Anyone have any idea how the water is still
getting in?
I also found water in the
side tanks. My old boat is a pre-MD conversion but I have
inspection hatches at the rear of the side tanks. Does anyone
know if these are connected to the front compartment hence
water getting in there, or are these leaking themselves
somewhere?
The front tank is connected to the side tanks - it is all one big
tank.
On mine there were cracks on the floor that were letting water
through into the tank - especially on the port side where there
wasn't much adhesive holding everything together. If you can see
any cracks in the tank molding then worth grinding back a bit for
adhesion and putting some epoxy and tape over the top.
Cheers
Martin
