Hi Wilhelm,

yes I have the same problem on my edel4 the seal of the boxes filled with foam which must make it insumersible has come off on each side. this is where the salt water comes out. It is true that I changed my fin last year and hit it well. In addition, I opened the outer seal between the salmon and the shell. But I think I didn’t fill the outer seal enough, with the pressure of the daggerboard on the tip a crack appeared on each side. So I think that in navigation these cracks must siphon and bring in the water. Because on my return from hoedic, I started by sailing without going down the daggerboard, very little water entered. and as soon as I lowered the centreboard, an hour later I had 3 litres. So I’m still wondering if I should put the salmon down or just reopen the joint on each side at the top of the salmon and fill it well with sikaflex then sealants?
