76 mfg inline6

no  i never  back down to  the city it lovely here and  all the fish  u want to fish  air smells good water clean   and people  nice  , i enjoy my retirement  beautiful area  , i  live at 55 and  27 across  from state  police post  

to  fix your running  water   though  transom seams is to use expoxy , as caulk  doees hold up well to exposed areas ,  2 to check transom rot  by checking  your drain plug area and check the color around the ring a dark color means it leaking or soft, sometime u can pull the transom apart  and fill with expoxy, or  replace the transom and use expoxy to bond  ,, depends when u catch it  , on my 76 mfg i/o  it 40 years  old had a small area i fixed with expoxy   hope it helps
