Ballast Cracked Problem

Hey Marty, are you the same Marty Jackson on the Siren forum? I just sold mine and got this 26.

So we put her into the water this weekend and still have some water coming in. Turning into a nightmare. Thinking if I ever do get it sealed, we're going to have to store it in a heated storage area to keep any water trapped between the ballast and the fiberglass covering to keep it from freezing.

Going to investigate if there is such a thing as a ballast sealer that we can put into the tank and try out. Also, I'm wondering if there is such a thing like the foam insulation they squirt into house walls that we could use to fill up the space surrounding the cracks. It would have to be water proof obviously.

I'll keep posting my results.
