MMC..thanks for your advise.
I looked up this product on the net and it seems like if I do use this I would be applying this along the seams where the rivets are inside the boat. Not sure where I can pick up this product and how much would be required for a 14ft boat.

MMC wrote in message oups.com... I recently inherited a 14 foot aluminum riveted boat from a family friend. This boat is in decent shape and I was advised there are no current leaks with this boat. I am planning to fix this boat up a bit by putting in floor boards/carpeting and a few swivel seats. My question is, is there something I can spray or apply to the bottom of the boat (inside) that will make it waterproof? I watched a show on the channel World Fishing Network where a couple of hosts sprayed something and made the boat waterproof. I just cant remember what it is. I am trying to avoid having to use putty or something to make bandage solutions to any leaks. This is my first boat so any help is much much appreciated. Thanks, Gary |
