Post subject:  Can a Hobie Lynx be repaired?

Hi,
I have my Lynx for just over a month and I have been using it every weekend when going pike fishing in the Netherlands.
I love it . Yesterday, I had a car accident and my Lynx smacked to the ground from the rooftop at 60 miles per hour. By miracle, the Lynx is still in one piece and it looks as if there is no structural damage to it. There are 2 cracks and 2 tears (each of about 3-4 inches long) at the bottom / side. (I was not able to upload the pictures I took)

Can this still be repaired? (Same as for the post on the cracks?)
Thanks for any technical comments,

Best regards
Tim

I found these instructions for repairing Bic Ace-Tec SUPs by filling gouges with epoxy. It looks pretty straightforward and I assume it would work on the Lynx as well.

I'm also going to put these PVC strips on the problem areas. My local river is rocky and no matter how careful I am damage is going to happen!
