    Default RAFT PATCHING NEEDED - Any Referrals???

    Could anyone refer me to someone who patches rafts?

    I have a Water Strider that has a "on the fly" patch job that needs to be removed and replaced with a patch I can count on.

    It a small hole less than 1/4 inch.

    Thank you!

    Do you know what the material is on the Water Striders? I can probably recommend a couple of folks who can do it, depending on materials and such it really shouldn't be a big job at all.

    I had Mark repair my 14ft. Tributary a couple weeks ago...did a great job. He's fast and reasonably priced.

    It's funny you mention Mark. He is going to repair my raft for me. He repaired a raft for me last year and I forgot his number but found it yesterday! When I posted this, I was looking for someone in Sacramento but wasn't very clear about that. I just didn't want to drive too far to get it done or I would just do it myself. Mark is really good so I decided I would make a run up there and have him do it.

    Thanks everyone for your suggestions!!!

    Aqua Seal works very well for a hole that size. I used it to patch my inflatable several years ago and it has held up fine. Just goop it on and let it dry. Quick, easy and affordable.
