Looks to me like it won't hold if your freighter hits a reef and cracks up....

Something tells me that is a little too much "flex" and a little large of a hole for Flexseal to work! LOL! OOPS!

Hey, call oops! and he can just do a hull extension job!:facepalm:

Man, I hope that area is somehow contained before that oil leaks out. What a nightmare.

Slap a couple of cases of color co-ordinated duct tape on it. Crack fixed and won't need painting :D

I don't know; this might be a job for Bulldog Tape. I tried some Plasti-Dip on the floor of my old beat up Hypalon bucket boat over the weekend. Time will tell of course, but I must say I was impressed. The floor looks brand new even after I dropped a couple of full dryboxes and a 120 quart Yeti cooler on it.

Don't forget to drill a stop hole. Duct tape can't fix everything. Some jobs are meant for JBweld. :facepalm:

Hope that wasn't because the handles broke, or the hing came apart!:eek:

Depends on who you ask. According to the admiral my ijicy is both chronic and acute. Some might consider that serious.:eek:
