<p><span style=”font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;”>Hopefully you will have seen my article on page 4 of the latest Wanderer Magazine regarding your problem. I hope it gives you an idea of how to find the problem and solve it.  While I was fixing my boat I noticed the screw holes for the self bailer were right on the edge of the hull skins and were breaking up along the edge of the bailer hole. I added a bit more ‘boat’ along one of the edges to help stop the problem returning.  BR Peter M Dion 1716</span></p>
