post a picture of it if you can, small cracks this will work good on, larger ones you may need to cover with something.

You might be able to plastic weld it. Post a pic.

Plastic welding would be the best long term fix.

Anybody know someone who can plastic weld a Roplene Triumph boat hull? Buddy has a Triumph boat with a crack forward of the bunk that needs repaired.


Put the plug in.

I would highly recommend the Marine Tex epoxy. Stuff is tough as nails. I used it to repair a couple cracks on a fiberglass hull last year. I check it from time to time and it is still holding up just fine.


Set the hook first, ask questions later!!!
