Default Need advice for repairing Funyak

I have two Funyaks. Both of them have holes/cracks on the bottom of
the runners. A couple of years ago, I patched them with fiberglass.
They worked for a couple of years but recently one of the patches came
off. Since they are made of polyethelyene the fiberglass doesn't have
a good bond. Does anyone know how to patch these boats? I will
appreciate any suggestions.

You need to find someone that does plastic welding to do a permanent
repair. Alternatively, Harbor Freight sells a plastic welder for ~$30 if
you're feeling adventurous.
