Squirrel eats your kayak... you eat squirrel... gives you energy to repair kayak...
Never thought squirrels would do that to a kayak. Learned something new today. How to repair holes in a kayak. Great video TJ.
This is another one of those "not if but when" you get a hole in your kayak. Thanks for the demo. Now, I have to go order some of those Gator Patches!
Great video on showcasing the gator patch... I have one in my kayak for emergency purposes only. It's good to know that it hardens up so quickly... thanks again TJ...
Not kayak related, but a squirrel ate a hole in the top ofmy wellhouse door. I folded chimney flashing over the top of the door, front and back & filled it with expandable foam. The squirrel ate 3 wedges of the flashing off before it gave up!
After I patch up the kayak, my next trip is to Cabela's or Basspro for a Crossman hunting pellet rifle, bonus I like squirrel on the grill.
Feb 16th, 2021...definitely a week I’d not want to relive here in central Texas! Bizzard shut EVERYTHING down for a solid week!
Good visual and well explained kayak repair video! Thanks brother!
Merry Christmas TJ!!!
Been waiting on this one!
That worked out hella good. Looks great!
DUDE! What an epic save with the Gator Patch!
I love these videos and for anyone who has a kayak or kayaks they are invaluable. Thanks
I appreciate that !
Just curious, for the bigger hole would it had been easier to use a plastic sheet and plastic wield it over?
Merry Christmas 🎄
Merry Christmas 🎅
Nice video! Something I would have gave a look into is feelfree rod holders, the only thing is replacing all four and probably have to to screw them on there but wouldn't be a bad replacement but if gator guard is the way best do that lol
The Gator Patch product looks excellent, but how well does it hold up over time?
I am curious to know how well the Gator Patch has held up after engagement with the real world., especially the keel application.
I have not found any follow up reviews of the product as a keel protector.
Many folks putting it on their kayak rigs, but nobody coming back with any status reporting about the product.
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas!!
Merry Christmas brother
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
Awesome.. Thank you
Y’all have those beast squirrels over there!
😲 Bad squirrels!
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas to you
Great VID
Would like to see if you could install an aftermarket rod holder right in the middle of that patch.
Ha I got that same plastic welder from Harbor Freight. I've used it to plug screw holes in my kayak after I removed accessories.
I would got Harry Carry on them Squirrels in the Crock Pot they would go . Nice looking job
Oh, yes! We had snow twice during that week TJ, ... crummy deal about the squirrels, I have squirrels here as well, black ones, & the standard gray ones, ... yours must be part beaver to leave teeth marks like that, ...
Wondering what you are cleaning the area with? Denatured alcohol? The black light should be able to cure the patch in only a couple of minutes, seconds even, ... I’ve used some of the “advertised” glue pens before, & they work awesomely
Black light and UV light are different. You can look at a black light, but never look at a UV light. Big difference.
WOW....WOW...I am low key kind of worried for my kayak cause I store it outside flat on the ground but also might be different here in Minnesota cause we get loads of snow but still....WOW
Hey TJ, I was wondering if you thing the GatorGuard would work to cover a really big hole? I cut the hole too big when I tried to replaced the round hatch in my hobie outback with a big square hatch in the floor! I was thinking I might use a few large patches to cover it and recut the proper size hole? What do you think?
Merry Christmas…!
How deep is your deck walls of your vibe sea ghost And are they standard depth. I was looking at the lifetime kayak and it is almost flat on top.
Gonna get some gator guard/ patch for the future. Everything you use goes up in price! ( Decking sheets). Ever use the plastic welding rods for deep gouges? Polypropylene or hdpe, I'm pretty sure they come in both ways.
I do use the plastic welding rods, the do great! I actually use them where I work a lot. If you watch my “Kayak Junk Drawer” video, I think I use one a little there too. 🤙🏼
Here an idea. Why not put flash mount rod holders instead to cover up the hole. It’ll look a lot cleaner.
What was the second black color layer ?
On the larger hole, you covered the gator patch with gator skin; why ? Was it just to make the patch thicker, so he could replace the rod holder? I recently installed the yak attack anchor trolley on my brand new Ascend 12 T & I cut access holes so that I could through bolt the bow & stern trolley pulleys. Does the gator patch work good enough to make a permanent water tight patch? The access holes are on the inside of my boat. Thanks for the great info and videos. Tight Lines 🎣 David H.
What do ya suggest for repairing this small hole?
Great video TJ do you think this stuff would work on the bottom of my 128t on the rear keel hole is about the size of a half dollar ( I didn't do it )
Definitely man! It’s follow the instructions and it can be better than new! Thanks for watching 🤙🏼
Pet stores have UV light bulbs. Look around the lizard area.
How about using it for a second layer on the bow as a guard before it wears through?
It would definitely work.
For reference, if manufactures use certain types of compounds they should add a vermin deterrent to the mix. There was a Native Watercraft Slayer right beside it and they didn’t touch it. Hobie, put an additive in your compound mix to avoid this!!!! (and give me a new Hobie PA 14 360...)
A heat gun works much better for me than a torch 😀
Time to paint my kayak with hot sauce.
What about putting a bigger modified rod holder
Rod holder..! I knew I was missing something..! Thanks
I think we are gonna go with a flush mount in the rear
Squirrels are vermin. Man what were they going after. Good fix TJ probably a good idea to have some of this gator patches on hand. Thanks
Does the stuff come in colors?
Just white
I have an important question for you , I had and loved it for many years ! I still enjoy the outdoors as much as I did when I was younger !
Can you subsets a kayak for an older person , I’m 70 years old , but still very active with some mobility issues ! Tell me what kayak I should look at that would fit the issues that I do have but really want to get back into MY KAYAK ????
Merry Christmas!! You need a BB gun for squirrels hunting !!
Why didn't you simply cut out the rod holders and use add on holders? Would have saved time and looked better cosmetically.
Didnt know a squirrel would eat plastic ? I have alot of squirrel around my home and they dont do that-
I ate a squirrel!
Buy a squirrel feeder and call it a day!
Merry Christmas!!
