I had to laugh as I viewed this video - because a family of mice decided to move into one of the tubes in my Achilles Hypalon boat over the winter. I was less than pleased and chased them out, but they moved back in through the three inch hole they created. I thought that I would throw away the boat, but didn't get around to it - but now seeing this video, I will attempt to seal the hole and see if I can inflate it. Thanks for the motivation to fix it.
Really cool watching you repair these boats and is encouraging me to not be so afraid of making some repairs of my own. I have 2 zodiac's from the late 70's ones about 14 feet and the other about 12 and both can use a little tlc for sure..
Thank you. I try to show everyone that no matter the damage to their inflatable boat; as long as the skin is still in usable condition, these boats can be put back together. Even if they are glued together and the old glue is failing. They can always be put back together. It can be labor intensive at times, but rewarding in the end.
