I have and older Seaworthy inflatable dingy that one of the valves is leaking on. Does anyone know where I can get a replacement valve for this thing?

Can you post a picture of the valve?

  Have you tried cleaning it with warm soapy water?

Annapolis Inflatables carries all sorts of valves. May be a bit pricey though.

as of right now it is fixed. I used the valve from the inflatable keel thing. the inflatable keel was torn and missing part of it and was unusable. I guess it was a case of not seeing the correction in front of my face.

Glad you got it fixed.  The little info I found online said that it is a pretty good dink.  Made of the same halypon my old Avon... just keeps taking abuse and hanging in there...

  Next time you have the camera out, you might take a picture of the valve anyway.  That way if you do need a replacement some time you will know what to look for.
