Wave sleeve in hull sliding out

Any suggestions the sleeve in the hull of my wave is sliding out were the cross bar goes in Thanks E

How old is this boat?

The sleeves are molded into the hull and have some structure to grip the plastic. Perhaps gluing would be possible. I'd try West systems G-Flex.

04 is the year of the boat...sliding out in the back right hull about 1 inch on the inside so it hits the mount on the cross bar and will not sit fluss with the hull..so hull on right side is towed in.. Thanks E

I'd try the epoxy afer re-inserting the sleeve.

Interesting, did this happen as a result of "normal" use or was there an accident of some kind.

If normal use, do you sail in heavy air and waves a lot?

Charlie

Only sail in Mexico Rocky Point with med. size waves ...no accident..E

Matt Miller where can I pick up some west system G-Flex or will any expoxy work ..Thanks Eric

The G-flex is described as excellent for Polyurethane applications. West Systems is available at Marine stores. Try West Marine?
