woodman Posted May 30, 2014 Report Share Posted May 30, 2014 Sooner or later this could happen.... This is a question Emailed to me by someone who bought one of my donated kayaks....Quote: Hi Steve: My name is Larry Hansen, & I bought the Kayak you donated to KCRM. What an awesome peace of art! I get comments everywhere I take it. Recently i cam up on a cement dock at the wrong angle & put a small tear in the front. It takes in some water but it is still usable. What are you repair suggestions? Looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks Larry I'd say epoxy a patch or try to stitch a patch, then coat with paint!

kayak278 Posted May 31, 2014 Report Share Posted May 31, 2014 I second the stitch and patch and then coat with paint. I had to do this and it worked very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kudzu Posted June 1, 2014 Report Share Posted June 1, 2014 Had a student that HAD to use the heat gun on her boat as soon as I left the classroom. She burned a hole in her skin. I sewed on a skin patch on the outside, we painted over it and it was dry at launch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
