Jarbo, do you have any epoxy resin left? I bet it would hold better with fiberglass cloth or mat. You can get either at Wally World or lowes. The resin they sell there is shit but the cloth is the same as any.

I think it will. If it doesn't, try shoe goo! Flexibility is the key.

Not a resin, I used waterweld epoxy putty, have seen it do crazy things on vehicles. After curing I sanded smooth keeping patch thin. Then heated and used gorilla tape. Used a heat gun on each layer.

Billie mays would be disappointed you didn't use flex seal!

Look up "kayak welding."
They just use a hair dryer or a heat gun to melt plastic in to patch holes.

This is waylan welding, plus I epoxied. My dad has a plastic welder with rods I'll use if this doesn't work.

Always an option, but I prefer to keep it in the back pocket til needed.

This is my fishing kayak, will also use it to have Taz chase me around the lake.

After first trip to the lake no leaks, from the repaired area at least. Did find another area on the rear keel that leaked, I was not surprised, I expected it.

Drill holes at each end if crack to arrest any more propagation.

"Propagation". Know how I know you're a civil engineer?


Well, not a "civil" engineer certainly, but a Civil Engineer.

He's dead.....won't bother him now.

That patch should work until you put it in the water.
