I have a Sea Line Nimbus dry bag that has a few pinholes. According to its website, it is urethane coated nylon. Anyone have any idea how to patch the holes?

Actual pinhole size?  I test my drybags every so often by filling with water.  There are a couple very small holes that I have patched internally with 1"x1" duct tape.  Other than that, i'm not too worried.  Even if they go overboard I keep enough air in them so they float, and the holes are small enough that  it's only a tiny drop of water here and there.

I put most items in the zip-lock bags before they go in the dry bag.  Problem solved  :smt002

I just use a very thin layer of Goop.  Put a dot on my finger and then I just spread it around as it dries. I figure some of it will fill the hole even if the rest flakes off. Good reminder though... I should check by bags.

Could just brush on some urethane plasti dip from a can.
