Malibu Stealth 12 taking on water - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Malibu Kayak is in Paramount off Jackson street and my experiences with them have been great. My kayaks are blems off craigslist. Malibu replaced the small clear plastic cap on the bait tank lid and gave me the seat re-enforcement foam - no charge. They offered run there tap through the drain plug (threads fouled by previous owner) if I brought the kayak to their shop. I went with the compression plug. Honestly, I'd feel wrong asking them to address my leaks, as it is a blem and i am a second owner.

So i sealed up the two side hatches with marine goop and found softer gaskets to try out. Still need to seal up the bait tank, can't wait to get out there and see how much of a difference it makes.
