Doesn't look like it would be hard to weld, but with where it is I would lean towards having it professionally done since it will have a lot of water exposure and will be bearing weight. If you do it yourself I would augment the weld on top with a really thick layer of goop on the inside.

Thanks fellas, before I make a final decision I'm waiting to talk to the guys at malibu kayak to see what their recomendation is . Oex is a bit far of a drive for my self since I'm in woodland hills... Worst comes to worst I'll use some of the plastic from installing my ff to fill in with a plastic welder I guess. Bummed that this happened though this kayak was brand new and I bought with all the tags n everything just a few months ago ...

Yeah OEX SSB is quite a distance from you but Andy does "great" work! I've never had a crack as I'm relatively new to this Kayak Fishing but have heard nothing but good things about his work (He's the one who outfitted {TRICKED OUT} my Outback)!
Glad to hear you made it back safely with some nice fish (especially that sheepshead!)
