slow leaks
Hi I have a couple of very slow leaks and wonder if anyone has a magic cure?
I have heard of Sealafix and wonder if anyone has exreience of this product or knows of another method. My problem is I keep the rib on a swing mooring and it maybe sometimes 2 weeks between visits.
Thanks
J

The Inflatable Boat Sealant from Inland Marine that we sell is very good stuff for slow pin leaks but you will need to swish the sealant around inside the tube if the leaks are not just on the bottom of the chamber.
