Need your help guys and gals. I have an older 22 foot Starcraft that has a leak at the seam by the transom. Some of the silicone came off when I was powerwashing it. My question is what should I use to repair it. I think it was silicone that was on it before. Just a section about 4 inches long came off the section. Should I clean and replace the entire section or just patch the spot that is missing the sealant. Tim

Tim,

I'm for sure clueless about patching such a leak, but I am bumping this thread up, because I think it was missed. I, for one, just noticed it this evening. Hope someone can help you out.

Best of luck with the repairs.

Thanks a ton wolfe. Off topic but nice pic of the wolf. My son and I are both wolf fanatics. Me with a tatoo and his bedroom walls and counter tops plastered with photos. Tim

hey, Tim. Yeah, they're cool animals for sure, not just to look at, but also their social complexities & physical strength/endurance; I should be in such good shape :lol: .

Anyway, there's got to be someone here who knows a thing or two about patching a boat, right folks?
