I have an older 1980`s model 14 ' Loweline aluminum jon boat and discovered today as I was getting it cleaned up for fishing a crack on the bottom near the transom. Hoping you can see my attached pictures with my poor computer skills:-)
My first thought was all the tv commercials I`ve seen for Flex Seal and ordering that, but I also read that this product was more temporary than permanent fix.
Another video looked more promising with a guy using aluminum welding rods and a blow torch.
The crack is on the bottom corner of the drain plug side of the boat and I did take on small amounts of water late last fishing season. My guess is that the crack is 2-3 inches.
What is my best option for fixing ?
Thanks
