As usual, SRM is dead on. I have used "Dawn" brand dish soap to check for air leaks on many things. air lines, tires on rims, anything that may be leaking, OH and yes,,, these Hobie Hulls.... (the mast gets this treatment too)... whatever really soapy, bubbly, mix you can make up will work, as long as it is easily water soluble. don't use bubbly stuff like armorall, or any kind of silicon based chemical. Finding the leak is only way to fixing it... i have purchased and use a cheap wi-fi camera to my smarty fone.. it is self lit and stiff enough to reach kind of far into my '18 hulls. maybe an option for you as far as seeing the leak in real time? sorry if not applicable for you, but, it is sunday nite here, and i wanted to be on the internet.
