a little leak...

We have been having no shortage of rain and the Lewmar hatches are both trying to out leak the other but hardly surprising that the one over my head is a clear winner and is doing a quite passable imitation of a SuperSoaker!



The hatches actually don't bother me as the plan is to replace them with self-built hatches as soon as we have a couple of days without rain so they are a done (if not yet completed) deal... The leak that does have me a bit worried is one that is over the dinette table. Which was apparently repaired with Bondo or some such by a previous owner where the leak exits. The problem is trying to find where the ingress point is. This is some kind of problematic as it could be anywhere on the coach roof. As things go in such cases, I'll more than likely have to re-bed all of the deck hardware but I doubt that will actually fix the problem as it predates all of the current deck hardware which makes where the actual leak is something of a conundrum...
