Default Re: Leak

Regards your leak, I have spent the last 9 months getting to know my 78 sceptre that I have been rerigging. My deck drains were cracked where they came through deck. It trickled through my stringer forward of the transom. The pvc flange cracked at the junction with the deck. Temporary fix was to insert small piece of pvc pipe into drain and 5200 to drain pocket. It stopped the leak. As you end up with wet feet thanks to the drains I insert rubber 3/4 plugs to the outboard side when fishing the boat. Had to make starboard earmuffs for each side of my outboard to keep the waves out of the splash well. Wish I knew of this site before I started It save lots of guesswork.
