That's a lot of expansion! Wow. I'm from Ireland and grown up around RIBs but live in cold Alberta now amd hoping to buy a 5M zodiac RIB. I'm worried about these -40°C days and what it will do to the pontoons. Is it essential to store indoors during very cold weather? Would the cold crack the pvc/glue? Can't find much on the internet and they're not too popular over this side if the world and we don't get Temps like this back home so nobody there can really tell me.

I’m Leaving my boat inflated on my trailer for the winter . Will it be ok.? Speaking from New England area .

What kind of glue do you use?👍

I have exactly the same boat(aquapro sportsmaster 1101) but i am shocked to see how the boat looked in the beginning.But nevertheless you did a great job of repairing it! www.youtube.com/@retarivs

DUMP TRUMP

Both of my valves locked up this summer it sat for a little over a year uncovered.. Thanks man this helps a lot! It's a 1978, I've owned it since 2002.. Been a great boat but she's in need of some maintenance for sure but totally in good enough shape that its worth the money and time.

You didn't say it it was a PVC or Hypalon, but it looks like PVC. Was it a 2-part glue?

Very helpful, thank you!

Thanks mate from Australian much appreciated thanks for taking the time to help others 🏆

What awful adverts were attached to this

Annoying music , too loud

👍

Trying to help my son in law get the rear seat system to work for the grandkids. Screens work but the DVD player has an issue. I have copied DVDs to a media player that plugs into the entertainment system with RCA jacks. However, it will not play in the back (plays in front!) as the AUX selection is required on the entertainment system and the AUX selection does not seem to work as the DVD player is malfunctioning. Does anyone have any ideas? It’s a 2016 Buick SUV. Thanks.

I am orange/red vinyl Zodiac and there are areas that have bubbles where the vinyl material has delaminated. It's pretty much around where the accessories have been glued... Is this something that can be repaired?

Clark of Clark's Adventure UA-cam channel describes a when all else fails solution - open up a seam and stuff an inflatable dunnage bag inside.

Nice job! I have a question, I have a West Marine RIB with aluminum floor and one of the tube burst with a long tear from the seam. Do you think it's fixable?

What paint do you recommend for repainting a boat? Just bought an old used Avon Scout from the outfitter I work for. I would like to repaint the entire boat because it's a lousy grey. Also do you use anything else other then meks to clean or prep a boat before painting?

What is the best patch kit for a hypalon boat?

the old trusty red keel guard scraper, you did a grand job on that one,

But what kind of glue? Cannot use your wonderfully explained procedure without materials.

Thanks for the video and for showing all the steps!

Your videos are very informative. It is difficult to find help on my inflatable where I live. Peru. It is even more difficult to get parts and products. Thanks to your videos , I have been able to make repairs and keep my boat in seaworthy condition. Keep them coming please

I would agree with the other commenter. Way to much work to setup and take down. Ended up with a True Kit. Easy peasy.

I don't know how you can glue the inner patch, and the inner part of the tear, without excess glue sticking the insides together of the boat/tube or whatever it may be. You can't get your hand in there to keep it separated... it seems like just form it like a pyramid and hope for the best.

Would the same stuff/method work on vinyl pool?

Great video. Where can I get a replacement plug for a zodiac like that? I lost mine

Do you know if anyone makes a metal valve removal tool? I'm having trouble with the plastic ones breaking on me when I have to remove valves that have been in place for a long time. If not, any higher end PVC tools you can recommend?

DUMP THE MUSIC.

They will never come off, thats why your fixing them😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Nice repair

Just an add on to my last post, we are completely surrounded by coral reefs so indeed a need for patching

Great simple video, I used to have a milpro 4.7m and had plenty of patches back in Australia but never did the inside patch, I live on a tiny island Anajawan Island now and just got given a small PVC rib which has about 40 patches over the one spot hahahaha and am just now removing them so I can redo apparently a large cut so doing the inside patch will be very valuable. I have only been using hypalon glues before and know the techniques are the same but would like to know a good pvc glue if you have time. Like someone from Fiji offered if you're ever in our part of the woods drop in! All free, food, beer and accommodation. Would appreciate some info on a great glue.

Hi i have just got my hands on a zodiac milpro mk5 how do you rate them and what are the weak spots on them thanks ,great job again

Can't find it on Amazon unless it's 175.00

I wonder what is Marine Grease that you used as I have found soo many different marine grease - is this silicone based or something else?

I really wanted to try to do this myself because I just picked up a Saturn today, but I don’t know the first thing to do! I was trying to see the tools that you used, but they weren’t listed. Is there anyway that you can give me step-by-step instructions? What do I need to buy to use? I need to get this ready within the next month.

hello my friend they gave me a zodiac 2245 from 1978. no air is lost but only the keel. do you think the boat is alive? do the glues hold up? I think it's hypalon. it's the same as the one you made in 79

superb i love it by the way which country are you from?

Great video and thanks for sharing! I was wondering on rub-rail repairs where only a small portion of the end is peeling off, how would one repair a section of it? I wouldn’t want to remove the entire rail. Can I follow your prep with sanding as close as possible to the glued on section?

Is this a pvc

Very nice work thanks for videos 🍺🍺

What wax do you thinks the best for aluminum?

Hello. maybw you can tell how to remove the old glue? i have zodiac boat and dude begore me try to glue bottom of the boat but did terible job and i want to fix it like you did,but its a lot of glue residue left. please can you tell me? btw you boat fixing skills is on another level!!!

I have a 1986 Zodiac Mk1 GT. I need to repair a small leak on a seam on the cone. I can not seem to figure out if it is PVC or Hypalon. I have all the original manuals, sales catalogs, purchase orders, repair kits (glue is dried), but nothing states what this boat is made out of. Can you help?

good evening friend they gave me a Zodiac, I think it's a 1974 model.. it's a Zodiac 2245. it looks a lot like the one you made. I would like you to tell me what fabric the balloon is and if it's worth making it.

You need to get the trash out of MrBeast Company
