First I would like to say thanks to all you guys for the tips and tricks I have borrowed over the last couple of months lurking int he shadows.
I bought and modified a little alumacraft 1436 this winter. Its been a fun project. I finally got it on the water this weekend and everything went fairly well except for this stupid atwood a500 pump that had been connected thru the hull of the boat when I bought it. I assume it was supposed to fill the removable live well, it doesn't work, and I don't use the live well so who knows really. Anyways the point being it leaks. its not a real bad leak, probably took on a gallon of water in about 5 hours. but still it leaks, and I need to remedy it. I am trying to find the simplest way to eliminate the problem. I do no need the motor, and as I mentioned it doesn't work anyways, but I would like to get it out of the way some, and get the hole plugged or covered. does anyone have any suggestions on the best way to do this?
I appreciate any suggestions.
