FIXING A HOLE

Fixing A Hole

You  might be breezing along one day doing six knots enjoying the ride when all of a sudden there is bang and the boat suddenly stops and you hear water flooding in down below. What do you do? Hopefully you never have to answer this question.  Happily, the folks at Yachting Monthly have purposely holed their test boat and tried several methods to stem the incoming flood of water on their "crash boat". Their tests and results are worth a look so if you should happen to get a hole in your boat you'll know what to do to save it.
