geeks2you Report post Posted July 2, 2018 Bought a "new to me" 2002 2200v. Have a problem with 1 of the cooler anchor points on the deck in front of the console. It has dropped loose from the deck surface and is sort of falling into the deck. The biggest worry is that there is a large gap the is open for water to leak into the fiberglass floor as well as into the bilge. I looked this weekend and the water was pooling on top of the fuel cell and it looks like it it has rusted the fuel gauge wires, which is not working currently. Can I just epoxy the anchor point back into place and then seal and small gaps around the hole perimeter? Anyone else had this issue? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mustang190 Report post Posted July 2, 2018 I would just epoxy them in or just remove them altogether. Fill and seal the holes. I use a Engel cooler and it stays in place without any tie downs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HoneyB Report post Posted July 2, 2018 Plan sounds sound to me. Keeping water on the deck and not letting it seap under the deck is the right thing to do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
justfish Report post Posted July 2, 2018 I replied to your FB post. I filled mine in. Contact spectrum for a pre mixed epoxy that should match close. A small jar should do them all I think Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BlueMojito Report post Posted July 4, 2018 I have the Engel cooler as well, but use just two turnbuckles to hold it in place. I think the sets of 4 were for a strap arrangement. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
johnwater Report post Posted July 20, 2018 yes i also have this problem,been fighting the deck hardware always coming loose with vibration of boat,etc. i have 2011 22ft pathfinder. i thought about removing it all and filling in with marine tex,then paint it,but maybe as suggested just fill in spaces with epoxy and see how that works. would like to see/hear your results. john watermeier Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
