Marine Tex

[charlie_the_tuna]

y'know, i just cant see using the whole bottle for the one or two repairs i need here and there.
i removed one of my rod holders on the transom and wanted to plug the hole so i could mount a downrigger. so i cut a plug and mixed up some marine tex to stick it in there.
i plan on glassing over when it hardens, but the crappity crap just wont harden.
so i just went around the rim with some gorilla glue and if we ever get any more sun here i will stick a quick sheet or glass on the bottom and do my stuff on the top.
why wellcraft put rod holders there, i'll never know.

last time i tried to mix some up, i wanted to afix some stainless studs into the ends of my trim rams so i could throw some extra zincs on there.
that was the beginning of last season. . . . it should harden any day now.

I have used a ton of Formula 27 to fill holes on my V, its the bondo of the marine world!! I used it am lot!! But it needs to be top coated with paint or what ever as it will absorb water.
