deck drain issue
 
Hello, I have a 73 SF with the original deck height and have replaced the deck drain tubes a couple times. Well now one of them is leaking even after i recently removed some of the old 5200 and loaded the top and bottom with 5200 again and let it dry before launching. I know these are pretty simple repairs but am i missing something on why this is leaking. Pretty sure the brass tube is not cracked. Going to haul the boat out today, get a look and probably replace the tube. Thanks

Check the one up front. Are you positive it's coming from there? Or just seeing water in your bilge? Mine was leaking and It was giving me a headache. My flare was all wrong and it was seeping. Actually it was seeping fast! Amazing that much water can come from something that size.

Yes pretty sure it was on the one in the aft deck. it got so bad i could see it running a little. I just pulled the tube out removed all old 5200 and replaced tube. Just waiting to see how long it takes for the "fast cure" to actually cure. Thanks
