(my first time posting, but I have enjoyed & benefitted from this community's knowledge base for a couple years... thanks in advance for any tips)
My trusty old 2007 (I think) Mirage Tandem (pre-"Oasis") has a hull issue. I can't afford to replace her with a new one.
I just noticed that to the starboard side of the aft drive well, there is a threaded plug whose receiver (the part of the hull that is threaded to receive the plug) is cracking. There are some helpful posts about plastic weld products, and I am reasonably handy, but before I begin, does anyone have advice? Also, I'm not sure what this threaded bung is intended for (old owner's manual is lost), as it doesn't open/close off anything except a thimble-sized compartment, which couldn't hold enough rum to have any effect. I'm thinking that the plug itself (which has a raised half-ring and could have something clipped to it) was probably the intended function.
Due to a back injury, this kayak sat for a couple years (out of the sun, under a deck), but thanks to physical therapy, I was excited to take her out again before weather becomes unpleasant. Any words of wisdom out there?
