Probably been asked, but how do you find a leak on your yak??????

Put some foam on the bottom and fill her inside with water till she blows

One option is to fill the yak with water and see where it leaks, another is to spray the yak with a soap water mixture, use a shop vac to blow air into the yak and find out where the leak is coming from.

If your yak has rivets, it has leaks. If it leaks a lot you can probably just roll around a few gallons of water inside to find the trouble area. Scuppers are the biggest culprits. Try plugging them from the bottom and filling the foot and bait wells with water to check them.
