[QUOTE="DaleH, post: 417843, member: 15636"] If the round wire snake doesn't work - try to find the FLAT spring wire snake, where the flat portion is 1/4" or bigger. Work "against the coil" so that the tip is always trying to go DOWN ... and you should able to snake it all the way to the bow provided you can get access to start from the stern. TIP - these flat-wire snakes usually have a bulbous end of them. I bought one used at a flea market for $3 and cut the round end off, leaving it as just flat bare wire and it would great on tin boats. And I have a fleet of them I help maintain, so it sure comes in handy! [/QUOTE]
