Any hints on locating leak in a quintrex ? After a going out for a few hours there always seems to be water flowing out when the bungs are removed..

reseal around your bung and engine mount holes and any other likely spot like that for a start, odds are you will fix it. If not food coloring in the water and partial fill your hull.

Thanks guys for the quick replys. I've looked over all the welds and all looks ok, so i might give the food colouring a go as well...Keep the ideas coming..Thanks
when i bought my second hand hull i filled it up with water on the inside whilst still on the trailer,,,went under and marked all the seeps with a permanent texter,,took it to a mates and welded her up..was told it had a leak or two,,,,just not the 10 or so i welded up. :-/..

Oh no - another good ausfih idea. Since I think I've got the same problem you've all messed up my plans of going out this weekend, what with fixing the starter and kill switch, and now looking for a leak.
Spose I'm destined to be on land this weekend.
Good tips all round, thanks everyone
