That's definitely a 24TD. I have the same model that was built in 1999. Paid $6500 for mine.

That'll work, Laurie! :) Probably better than a towel or dish cloth that I've been using. Maybe I'll grab a piece of that stuff we were using on the edge of the flaps of our 737s at work.

Can you get to the back side of the holes fairly easy? I'd put a layer of fiberglass on the back side to give the Marine-Tex something to stick to. BTW, I've patched dings on the bottom of my drift...

Dang Jack, I never heard of using coffee grounds even after 26 years in the Air Force. I've used charcoal, but it didn't really work that well. BTW, I retired a D-M in 2002.

"New" 1999 24TD

Attached are some pics of my "new" 1999 Towlite I bought yesterday. We're very happy and the 650 mile round trip to Flagstaff was VERY worth it! Now it's time for cleaning and tweaking a few things.
