So I spent 3 years on this boat. I think it came out well had it out on Lake Erie 2 times. It runs great the 9.9 kicker works great for trolling Walleyes. Great fishing boat. But it is seeping water from the front somewhere. I saw it when we had the dog house tilted with the blowers on. My question is how do I find the leak. I sanded the bottom and patched a few holes at the bottom by the transom. I painted the bottom blue so if I use the food color dye test what color is the best or any other detective work I my try. Also the epoxy resin Should be used. The hull passes the eye test but ........I can't dock it like this. Solon Dan tried to upload photo but couldn't.

So this is a fiberglass I/O boat?

You say you spent 3 yrs. on it, what did you do to it? Complete gut and restore including stringers and transom?... or maybe just cosmetic painting and stuff?
