Hello all.

I accidentally put my mako body together backwards and went for a dive. Of course it flooded.
Now it will not seal correctly ... I have tried a larger diameter o-ring with still no luck.
Everything looks good but it starts to leak even in the hot tub.
Any suggestions?

Thanks

Greg
 
Perhaps you have a nick in your O ring, or worse in the sealing grooves of the shell? I would use a magnifying lens to look for these defects. As I have a Mako myself - I am not crazy about the sealing edges of the plastics. I much prefer my Gavin and X Scooter seals.
