Depends on the raft. Hypalon requires one type of material and prep, PVC another. If it's a cheapie it may cost as much to repair as you paid for it. Give us more detail and maybe we can help you sort it out.

Cool. I assume you bought it from Byrd's? My buddy got one from them too. I may or may not have talked him into it, but don't tell his wife. She already thinks I'm a bad influence (probably right). :angel: He hasn't picked it up yet, so hopefully they didn't sell you his. :wht: Any way, NRS has everything you need including great advice right on their website. Check it out. http://www.nrsweb.com/shop/product_list.asp?deptid=978" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; Raft repair isn't difficult. You just have to be sure to use the right materials and follow the instructions to the letter. I know that's kind of general, but as I said, there's really not a lot to it. It's more about taking your time, using the right stuff for the job, and being thorough. No shortcuts. If you run into more specific issues check in for more specific help, but I'm betting you'll be ready to take it on once you've read the NRS tutorials and ordered what you need. Also, don't hesitate to call them. They're knowledgeable and nice folks. Good luck.
You come too.
