still leaking

[Montanaro]

The keel on my feelfree lure is still leaking despite 2 hdpe patch jobs.  After a few trips it gets week again.  Im assuming that loading and unloading from my truck bed is partially to blame.  Any suggestions?

you did not post a pic but i googled some photos.  I run a lot of boats in and out of here and I have mine that I will never sell of course and it always seems that this one takes on water, that one takes on water etc.  Sometimes it drives me nuts.  I will use my personal boat of ten years as an example.  Every time I go out, after about an hour, the auto bilge will come on in the transom area.  The transom is tough, bullet proof no rot.  I have a few things running through there but sealed perfectly.  I got a hold of some of Flex Seal and lined the Transom with it (spray can) I have not seen a drop all year.   Now one thing I notice about your post, you are dragging the boat in and out of your truck, if you know where the crack or slit is spray the flex seal inside, lay a cut piece of rubber over it, let it dry for two days and then coat the **** out of it.   The stuff really works. If you want the patch to look perfect tape it up nice before
