As today is raining, ive had a opportunity to spot where some leaks are coming from.
Now having sealed the decks and the offending windows, im left with some minor dribbles which are coming in from the joints in the boards which form the cabin sides, like so:
Now these joints are everywhere, and almost all have opened up to some degree. Some are splined, others arent. The gaps are small, max 1mm, athough the bigger ones are say 8mm, but have the spline filling them.
I managed to solve the leaks last year by injecting some thickened epoxy into the gaps from outside. This worked, but the recent dry (ish) and sunny weather has caused them to open again.
So my question, anyone got any ideas on the best way to proceed to solve the leaks?
Many thanks Alex
