Let me know how the skimmer repair works out for you. We're about do
for something like that on our pool.

I just got some waterproof epoxy and fixed the crack in mine. I figure
I can always cut it out and replace it but the epoxy was worth a shot.
A year later, it is good.

I did drain the pool down a little, it was already at the crack,
cleaned up the plastic well with PVC (pipe) cleaner, scuffed it up a
bit with 150 grit and laid in the epoxy.

This had the pipe to the bottom leaking at the skimmer. Caused the skimmer
concrete to break away from the wall.
