I have a leak in the front of my boat under the front deck/livewell. It is also under the keel plate on the outside and under a cap on the inside. Does anyone know if there is another set of rivets under the keelplate/cap that join the boat together?
In the past I have found leaks by putting water in the boat (found and fixed 10 rivets) and loading the boat in the water slowly (still straped to the trailer) and finding four more. This leak does not show up on the outside but when I raise the boat up (via the front trailer wheel) water will come out the back of the keel plate (and yea I made sure the plate was drained before I lowered it past level again). Any ideas out there?
Thanks in advance,
Barry L.
