BJ26 Taking onboard 1-2 cups of water - Help !!
Hi Everyone,
As the title says, my blackjack is taking 1-2cups of water inside the hull. I am stumped as to what would be causing this?? In an attempt to determine the problem(s), here is what l have done to date;
1. Placed in the BJ in the bath tub for over an hour - Result: No water had entered inside the hull - not a drop
2. Powered up the BJ (while holding it with hands) to see if the water is coming through the brass tube - Water did not come out of the brass tube.
3. Tested the water cooling tubes by unplugging the tube from the outside rudder and blowing a mouth full or two of fresh water through the tube - Result: no water had leaked out from any of the tubes going in & out of the motor and ESC.
In performing the above tests, l have also pressed the hull deeper into the water and at different angles - Again, it made no difference and still l was not able to see any water coming inside the hull.
l have taped all around the hull lid using 2 inch tape.
I am completely stumped as to what is causing so much water be left inside the hull after a 6-7 minute run on the lake.
I would be grateful to hear from the experts out there as to what would be causing this.
Many thanks in advance.
