I just bought a used 10' Mercury air-deck with a Mercury 8hp four-stroke. The boat has a pinhole just under the bow hook which I tried to patch yesterday. I left it fully inflated over night and this morning all three toon chambers had no air pressure. I aired it back up and checked the entire boat with soapy water for more leaks, but didn't find any besides the hole I fixed yesterday. The patch didn't hold so it leaked all night.
Are the chambers connected with small holes in between? Because I couldn't find any leaks in the side chambers but they still leaked out overnight, and the whole boat looked uniformly floppy this morning like that one hole drained the entire boat.
Or maybe Im not using the right method to find leaks?
Any insight would be great, this is my first inflatable.
