The glue is lifting around the circular "patch" around the inflation valve on the high pressure floor on my 2008 Saturn SD365. Air finally found its way out in one tiny section. I did a repair with Airseal at the spot where air is coming out, but I'm not hopeful. I was thinking of overlapping problem edges of the original circular "patch" with a patch from the kit that come with the boat. I can see where the air is bubbling up can tell how close the bubble is to the edge. I was going to patch the spots where the bubble is close. I was going to overlap by 1/2 inch on each side, and use HH66 as the glue.
What really needs to happen is the circular patch needs to be removed and reglued, but I don't know if I have the skills to do that. I wouldn't know how to remove it from the floor. If I could get it off, I could claen it off and reseal it for a semi-permanent repair. The boat is 7 1/2 years old, and I was in the process of selling it on ebay when the leak developed. I want to give it a good fix before I sell it. The boat looks almost new as it was only used for RV trips once a year or so.
What are my options?
