HI,
I seem to be plagued with a inflatable that doesn't want to stay up!! I've cleaned all the valves checked for leaks but have not been able to find any yet after a few days one of the sides will be noticeably deflated but not always the same! Is this normal?

Put some detergent and water in a spray bottle, then spray the whole thing. If you see some bubbles then there's your problem.

No Keith, it isn't normal. I had a great Quicksilver inflatable that did this. I found the leak and had it fixed by the agents down near Cronulla. A few weeks later it was doing it again. I sold it and bought a cheap one on ebay. I had to get the transom reglued after 6 years but it is great.

nebbs has got it!!!
Do that, repair the hole, flog it off and get yourself a "Zodiac".
Buy cheap and you get what you paid for. Buy quality and you get what you paid for.
