Title: Finding leaks
Post by: Jack Tar on December 21, 2005, 06:33:17 PM
If you have a deck or window leak that is driving you crazy try this. Find a piece of childrens side walk chalk and draw a chalk line under or around the inside of the hull. Once the leak runs across the chalk line it will indicate where the leak flow is.

I tell you man!  This tip works great!

I won me a fine bottle of rum in a poker game once, but I dropped the bottle on me boat.

Them chalk lines helped me find the spilled rum in the bilge, funny thing I noticed when I slurped the rum up is how it tasted just like the grog CaptK keep giving me!

I need me one of them their hand operated blender!
