[QUOTE="krawler, post: 307076, member: 5928"] I've actually used the HTS 2000 stuff before and it works pretty good. It's a lot stronger than epoxy and won't crack. It takes a lot of practice to get good at filling holes though. It's best to practice on a piece of scrap before trying it on your boat. And you don't want to heat up a seam to much or you might cause more problems than you'll fix. I agree that tig welding would be the best way to fix it. See if you can find a welding school near by, they might do it for little to nothing. [/QUOTE]
