Are Souris River Canoes easy to repair?
Yes. We stock all the materials needed plus marine epoxy resin which is pre-mixed for total simplicity. If needed, we can instruct someone over the phone or via email. To repair a puncture in the field, use duct tape. When you get back home, simply sand down the area of the puncture, give it a coat of resin and stick a pre-cut kevlar patch to the area. Cover with a bit of plastic wrap stretched taut with adhesive tape. Squeeze the air bubble out with your thumb. Repeat the process on the inside of the canoe less the plastic wrap and let cure for 5 hours. Paddle.
