[QUOTE="Lou63, post: 296426, member: 207"] my older starcraft leaked around some loose rivets on the bottom in the back where I am unable to get to them from the inside. I bought some of the Mac's tools generic flex seal spray cans on sale for a couple of bucks and used them. It had blue silicon sealant on it from a prior owner so I peeled that all off and used a wire brush on a drill to clean/rough up the outside and sprayed several coats on it. I was worried my bilge pump had gone out last year when I turned it on and no water pumped out. It was dry and luckily I did not burn up my pump as I forgot to turn it off. Even if I had to redo it every year or two its pretty easy to wire brush and spray compared to tearing the boat apart for a few loose rivets. Also I had a pair of waders leaking in the crotch area and the seam sealer stuff didn't work so what the heck I sprayed them inside and out and the family jewels stayed dry. It dried a bit stiff but it worked. [/QUOTE]
