LJ fish and a cracking problem

My hobie has developed a crack from storing on its wheels. Anyways was gonna use JB weld to fill it surprisingly that crack lets a lot of water in. I posted some white fish and a sheep’s head nothing crazy to report about 65’ water was 68 degrees of the Northwest side off the kelp. Go get em.

Just to be clear, you store it using a scupper cart? I think the issue with that is if your have your bow at a different level than your stern. At that point there is a lever arm that gets especially bad if your kayak is heavy or you pile stuff on top of your kayak. I don't think that's a very hard repair but you probably can't use a scupper cart any more for storage or transport.

I don’t use it that often when I store it it’s on two pieces of pvc but when I’m getting it ready for the season I put it on it’s wheels. Hopefully it’s under warranty.

Drag it up to Oregon and you can use mine.
