While washing boat today, peaked inside transom while spraying hose in splashwell. Yup, water raining in. So for anyone that has replaced there’s where did you get them? What did you use to caulk them?

Until you can replace it I guess a good choice to seal it would be plumber's putty. It would stop the leak but still make it easy to remove for replacement.

Looks like they are made by Beckson. You can order new gaskets (O-rings) for about $5. Installation instruction say use silicone. So ordered some new gaskets, if that doesn’t solve I’ll pull and put new silicone in there. May just bo both and be done with it.

There are some trips I seem to get a lot of water pour out when I pull plug....I think it is ramp slope dependent. Use a few different ones. After wife pushed it up and I had it winched in place, I walked back to make sure she turned off and raised motors. Noted splashwell was flooded as it sat on trailer. Pulled out, batteries off, get home and probably a couple gallons comes out. Bet it all got in right there at the ramp. This should be an easy fix....
