    2018trx leaking

    My buddys 18 trx is leaking water, seems like it must be coming in thru the boarding ladder opening. Any other owners seeing this?

    I have a buddy that has a 18’ Patriot that has a leak he can’t find. Any chances you could make the causes public?

    Mine had several leaks, the 2 plastic sleeves in the well had no sealant and leaked into the hull, 2 fittings in the lower transom leaked from poor sealant but the one that took weeks to find was the live well. When they fitted the rear deck seat mount they drilled 4 holes through the top of the live well and to find these was hard. They are under that mount but need to put your fingers inside the livecwell on top of the step section and feel for them

    I hate to see threads like this. My 2015 20 TRX has had some panel switch issues but it doesn't leak a drop. Triton did take care of my switches. I now have rotary switches. Being an 18 I'd let the dealer take care of it.
