1995 Pro Tournament Repair

Have you checked your plug, thru hull fittings, and live well houses? I would think on an aluminum boat, that would be about the only thing to leak. I know the hulls can crack, but I would think that would be pretty obvious on aluminum. You can also plug the boat up and start filling it with water to check where its coming out at.

Oh, I can see the leaks! I have several rivets that were replaced before I bought the boat (which I did not see) and the keel strip is leaking as well. The last time out I estimate I had between 75 and 100 gallons in the boat.

I probably should have put more info in original post. I have a bunch of the rivets under the boat loose and missing and the keel strip is letting water out (and in I assume). So instead of just spending the rest of this year hoping to stop the leaks I just said the heck with and started taking the boat apart.
