I have a boat slip with a hoist, and today being the idiot that I am, ran my prop into the pontoon on accident. The pontoon is made of fiberglass. After hitting the pontoon, the top of the pontoon has a very slow leak in it. Is there some kind of fiberglass resin of some sorts I can put on the small puncture to patch it? The puncture is on the top of the pontoon, so it won't be submerged in the water (if I have the pontoon filled up with air, but the downside is there will be pressure on the hole until the application cures. I called a guy who specializes in this, and he wanted to put a new fiberglass coating on that portion of the pontoon, taking roughly 2-3 days total for all the work, costing $150, and requiring me to find alternate storage for my boat in the meantime. I'd much rather use some magical patch kit if such a thing exists. Also, awhile back I had some hull damage and bought some marinetex or maritex, forget what it's called, but it's for patching a gouge in my fiberglass hull on my boat. Would something like that work? Thanks in advance. -Dustin P.S. If replying by email, please fix the email address to show @yahoo.com only. |
