Hi Everyone,

It's about time we uploaded a new video tutorial! - This time, it's a straight forward, easy-to-follow guide to making a light to medium structual repair to a damaged composite kayak, canoe or boat. There's no special equipment necessary we just use a top quality epoxy repair resin, carbon/kevlar reinforcement and release film stretched tight to make effective, neat repairs to the hull.

Even if you don't have a boat (let alone a damaged one) then you'll probably still find some of the techniques used here of interest for your own projects.

Here's a link to the Kayak Repair Tutorial in our Online Composites Learning Centre.

I'll embed the video below but don't forget, we shoot all these in full High Definition so for a better quality version, please view on YouTube or the Learning Centre and choose 'HD'.



Any questions or feedback welcome.

As a paddler I've learned that one by trial and epic error!  What would be REALLY useful would be a similar one for foam cored boats where you cant get down inside to adequately repair the inside skin.  I imagine you'd have to sand out the foam, refoam, and patch the outer skin??

I love the old revenge.  Top polo boat!
