Boy that is amazing the main hull completly flooded and the almas had enough bouyancy to stay afloat and and you could make it ashore
[quote="Longfellow"]Disaster! I'm in the ocean at Topsail, North Carolina on vacation, and everthing is great when I see that I'm taking on water and sinking. OPen the hatch; the interior is filled to the top. I peddle my legs off to get to the beach. It seems earlier, when the AI slid sideways on the slanted beach the steel arm of the trak cart slipped out and the end punched a hole inside the lining of the slot where the cart arm inserts. I have now duct taped it and filled the hole with a carved off piece of pool noodle so I can keep sailing, but there is still some water getting through. So now what. Helisport in Huntington Long Island where I bought it says it can be welded but I don't know. The tear is up inside the slot. Matt, should the dealer try to weld it or what? The tear is huge and the body fills immediately. The cap on the cart was missing ,and I called parts for a new cap. The guy at Hobie parts took my address several weeks ago, and said he would send a cap but never did and it was that steel top that tore through the side of the slot when the cart twisted sideways on the hill
Any advice of what to do now?[/quote]
