    Leaking RIB

    My RIB has a slow leak somewhere. I sprayed a solution of ~1/2 water to ~1/2 liquid detergent over the rubber tubes but didn't see anything. Are there any other methods of finding a slow leak or is that just the nature of RIBs and I just have to live with blowing it up occasionally? Thanks

    Karma?

    I never cheer and am sympathetic towards anyone who contracts Covid.

    I have an old style crab/shrimp pot puller that has been sitting around for many years and I want to get rid of it. Pictures are in my album. Everything is stainless steel. The base would bolt to the removable floor panel and the mid-bracket would bolt to the inside of the gunwale. It comes...

    I just got my 2015 Ford F150 back from the shop, 25k service. They said the lug nuts on the rear tires were rusted so that it was difficult to get them off. It would have been a real bummer if I had a flat tire. They asked if I had a boat.......... They also said there was rust on the brake...
