Ive got a Hobie tandem that im gonna take out soon.
Its got some small leaks though, I think coming from the rivets on the rod holders. what do you guys use to seal leaks? Ive got marine epoxy, and I also was going to use ABS glue and a gasket on my rod holders.
arent most kayaks made out of ABS plastic???
thanks

Marine Goop fixes all...

I don't know my plastics too well, but I think Hobies are made out of polyethylene, which is different than ABS. Either way, go with the Goop ;)
