    Javelin taking on water

    Got a 1994 Javelin that is getting alot of warter in the bilge area. Should I reseal the thru hull fittings or replace them. None of them seem cracked.

    I'd probably start with putting some water in the bilge and see where it comes out at. It could be any of the thru hull fittings, livewell valve, etc. Put the plug in, add some water and see exactly where it leaks out at.

    Check your livewell valve as it could be leaking or the barb fitting is cracked andallows water in.

    On a 1994 boat I would put my bet on a broken livewell hose

    +1 Pull all the junk out of the back and back the trailer into the H20 with the drain plug installed. You'll find it quickly.
