Cabela's Aluminum Boat Patch
works great will not have to worry about it leaking

[Tom45]

Used it on the pipeline doping the pipe. It works great on small holes in a boat, it does not have any strenth to hold seams together but will fill up a hole.

I have used it and it is pretty good. It will do small holes.

But skip the torch and hassle.

Go to Lowes or Home depot and buy 3M 5200 marine adhesive. It comes in a small tube or a big tube like Caulking. It is fairly cheap and easy to use. Just clean the metal area and apply.

It is pretty much holding my Aluminum duck hunting boat together and No leaks. It is tough stuff.
