Help I\'ve Got A Hole!!

Some where above my window screen in amongst The pelmet, I've got a leak. Think it's been there for some while, But only leaks when the sea comes over the top. I've got my Captain Tullys but where do I squirt it?? Oh and while we are about it can anyone sort out Tutts!!!

No one can force me to come here-----------

Re: Help I\'ve Got A Hole!!

G’day Haydn.

Only 2 ways to fix this.

1. Slap on some sealant outside the leaking window. Messy and will not last.

2. Remove the window and do a proper job. More work but will last.


Sorry about that, but the choices are clear, or were you hoping for a miracle cure from the forum?

What about throwing a couple of buckets of water at the problem.

Don't know about the windows though, sorry. ;~)

Dont think it's the window thats leaking. It seems to be just above and right in the corner between the pelmet and side windows. Might be the fly bridge floor but looks to far forwards for that cos its underneath the cowling. Cos nose is in the air. Would have thought drips would appear further back though.

2 solutions spring to mind
1)Trade boat
2)Only go out on dry days in flat calm and dont go fast

Am working on the Tutts solution - not just as simple.
