[QUOTE="Brine, post: 240972, member: 1053"] Welcome to the site, and congrats on the rig. Before you do anything, you need to do a leak test on the boat and verify that what the seller mentioned is in fact the case. If you find some areas are leaking, try bucking any rivets that may be involved with the leak first, then do a leak test again, and post up any pics of problem areas. I used Steelflex, but it wasn't to stop a leak (and it shouldn't be used for that purpose in my opinion). I used it to make loading the boat under electric only power a bit easier, and as a preventative measure. [/QUOTE]
