I use Aluminum tape and a little bit of soft wire. Never had to do any major
repairs but it kept me going in the Texas Safari. I went under a tree and
tore up the boat and put two 3" holes in the hull below the water line. Just
dried it off with a lighter (be very careful) and put on the tape. Went 80
more miles with the fix. The wire was for the rudder and but was never used.
