I haven't had this boat long & I'm fooling around with little repairs and so on. Any way ,I noticed the hole where the antenna wire goes through was never sealed on the port or starboard side. I don't know if it was overlooked or somebody just didn't think. I sealed it with GE silicone which may not be the best but is OK till I get something better.I recently read an article where a bilge blower vent was leaking. By the time it was discovered it had caused a couple thousand $$ damage.
