Someone down here that does gliders told me about a tape, teflon maybe, that is 
used to seal the gaps in glider wings.  Sounds like it would be better than 
duct tape, in all respect to Red Green. I do think that a lot of the water that 
gets into the center section comes through that gap between the wing stub and 
the wing.  Also, after getting nearly drowned at Sun-N-Fun a couple of years 
ago,  I imagine a lot of rain water drains down throught the canopy sills 
unless you have a cover for the canopy.  I had my log book and aircraft papers 
in the baggage compartment and they looked like wet prunes after two days of 
rain.  All that water just can't be good for the main spar.
