There is a leak along the seam of my inflatable boat. I finally found a product that works. Please watch the video. Thanks! Lee

I have an Intex Mariner 4 that I have a Minn Kota trolling motor on. I use to run the trolling motor with a full size deep cycle battery like you do. I got tired of lugging that thing around so I went down to Batteries Plus and purchased a DURACELL Deep Cycle battery; model number DURDC12-35J. Its less than half the size of a full size battery and I can fish all day long with it. It's never left me without power on the lake. One of the best things I ever did for my Mariner 4 raft!

Wow! Thanks for the great tips on the Deep Cycle battery. Yeah, I'm getting a bit tired of hauling the heavy battery too. So, I switched to a kayak for now. Mariner 4 is much bigger; I might change to that one as well.

Thanks for watching, and I appreciate your continued support. I was putting a brake on acting in Khmer karaoke and tried to do more recreational activities. And sometimes, the action can give you (me) a little trouble, but that's okay. We can fix it together :) ✋
Great idea..I done the same with my mariner 4..but one problem..remains sticky where I sprayed..it never fully cured

I used Flex Seal; someone recommended it. It's not working! Do you know of a product that works? The water seeps into the bottom part of the boat, 4-5 gallons at times, and I could not find where the leak is coming from. I thought it was from the seams, so I sprayed it.

The best way to fix a leak is to apply a patch over it. If the bottom is punctured or cut, apply a patch on both sides.

@@rodrigogarcia2622, the boat manufacturer makes self-adhesive patches ("Repair Patches - 6 Pack"). You can, of course, go for those made by other companies (such as Bestway). I have used such patches mainly inside the boat; on the outside, too, but not under the boat (though I should test and see how they fare in the water). When the patch must be placed below the waterline, I use patch and glue ("Bison Vinyl Plastic/Soft Plastic Adhesive Colla"), the kind which does not require heating and can be applied even while out on the riverbank. Clean the surface well, cut the patch to size (I generally go for a two-centimetre radius for punctures), round off the corners of the patch if the patch is rectangular, and apply as instructed (press well); if you use glue, give it time to dry. If you are on the river/lake, your can set off again in about half an hour (that is, in warm weather; in cold weather, things might be different: last winter, for instance, I had to reapply a patch two times and wait from one day to the next to get the patch set). P.S. I have tried all kinds of tape (duck tape, Gorilla Tape...), but they will not stick well to the PVC. Such a tape would be ideal for repairs; hopefully, they will make it one day!
