Kayak crack repair
Loctite does work,however because of a bottom hull slit or crack you need to apply a cloth patch over that slit.Your hull oscillates or rocks as it goes thru the surf and sea surface.Oex probably has good advice on such repairs.I had a crack on a pylon next to a water drain hule.I applied clear whtie Gorilla glue then used a netted cloth with another layer of glue.So far no leaks.Good luck

I'll fix it for you where you at
I'm in San Diego weld some metal mesh into plastic inside and cover with welded plastic, on both sides.
Be careful you don't get to hot and make it worse. Go slow a little at a time so it can cool. If you get to big of an area hot...it will fall out...

Isn't crack illegal? Why is crack on your kayak?

I would drill a hole at each end of the crack to help stop it from spreading. Then do your repair.
