Great video! I inherited a Sportspal from my Dad that first belonged to my Grandpa. I have a little water coming in and now I can use your video to patch it. Great job!
You’re freaking awesome. I have an 11’ used Sportspal in my backyard right now that have tons of leaks and lot’s of strange different caulking. Now Zi know how to take care of her. Thank you so much from Canada.
You have very interesting content I really enjoy your videos and I learned a lot as well. Tomorrow I'll pick up my first 12' Sportspal Canoe... is good to know how to fix it with confidence. Thank you buddy for your videos!!!
Is Adthane only in Canada? Seems like it. There are other marine sealants, but Adthane is the one? Just making sure. I'd rather not pay 20 bucks in shipping to get it shipped to the states. Thanks kindly.
Can a person just do the outside on the seam temporarily if it is not that bad a leak and then when summer is over do the inside and a complete job? Thanks in advance
@@GettenanyOutdoorsSportspal Oh Thank you very much for your reply I found two brand new sharp little slits punctures when I got home. Could of been damaged when they took it off the side of the house or in my pickup bed.Thought it was a seam but looked really close and sure enough 1/8th of an inch hairline slit. Good News Thanks again you are the best :-)
These new sportspal canoes are interesting to me because I have an old sportspal 14 that doesn't have those horizontal seams at all this new design doesnt seem to be as well constructed but probably easier to manufacture.

@infie Other products may work. There is a distributor in New York State Kenco Outfitters, he has most parts available and ships anywhere

Absolutely, if you seal it well enough on the outside, you shouldn't need to do the inside unless it leaks along the keel.

Make sure it's clean and force some sealant through the slice and all should be fine good luck

I an guessing the adthane sealeant is used on the inside as well.
That is correct 👌
Thanks getting ready to refurbish my Sportspal.
Right on good luck any problems you know a guy
What kind of sealant do you use
It's a marine sealant called adthane. Hard to find but if you email info@bwmarineproducts.com they will have some
Your very entertaining lol, and great information 👍
Another great video. I hope I never have to do this though.
This one did suck, but someone asked for it and a canoe came in with just this problem so what's a guy to do. Thanks for the ongoing support
