Post subject: | Polyethylene hull compatability with Epoxy ? |
I have been using my Outback all summer without a problem and just love it....I fish a lot at night here in New England and have been reading about cracks/leaks developing in some hulls.This would ruin a good night out from shore so just want to know IF I develop a leak (and can get back to shore in one piece) can I repair it using fiberglass cloth (or mat) and West System Epoxy Resin which I have used for years to build/repair wooden boats???? I do seemto understand that GOOP bonds to polyethylene but does epoxy resin? Thanks..... Bill |

I'm putting my money on Gorilla Tape. I keep a roll in the kayak. |
