Thanks for the advice...I own some Sea Eagles, and they come with "PVC" glue. This has worked awesomely on the 2 occasions I've had to patch but sure enough:

I'm thinking I'll keep my original patch for a few more trips to see if it improves but otherwise may attempt with this more toxic glue.
p.s. While I stand by my claim that this boat is WAY more delicate than, say, my Sea Eagle Fish SUP 12, I recently took it on a 4 day river trip on the Upper St. Croix River and it performed like a CHAMPION. Due to low river levels we were frequently dragging our boats across jagged rocks over low rapids. I've long since learned that the Sea Eagle can handle just about anything with no problems, but I was incredibly impressed that the iTrek went rapid-for-rapid with no issues.
