I have some road rash on my Bucks Alpine Pontoon. The problem is a series of about 6 pinholes very close together. I think I can pach the bladder but I want to get the right kind of patch kit. The new Alpines have vinal bladders. Do the ones from 10 years ago have vinal or are they polyurethane?

Is it the two bladder per side, and 7' instead of 6'
Does it have the foot bar that goes from side to side, or are they two separate foot pegs.
Is the valve a long tube?
At any rate...AQUA SEAL will probably work. I do still have that Urethane tape, but I have no boat that I can use it on, so give a pm if I can help.

It is the 6ft, two peg type. It only has one pontoon on each side.
Do you think it is urethane?
Thanks for your help.

I am betting it is. What valves?

The long thin valves. The top looks like a kazoo.

Same as my old one. It is Urethane. The cover however, is PVC coated, so I would try Aquaseal. On the bladder, I would use the tape.
