Urethane might be more durable, but it is usually more liquid, which would require some type of mold to contain it. But it is pretty tough. There are many grades though, not sure which would be best. Hard to find in white.

Asking my insurance to repair it might have opened the for to totaling the boat. :( I’m trying a Hail Mary fix. I put some white Flex Paste in/on the gouges. ($14 at Lowe’s.) After a few days cure time, I’m wet sanding with progressively finer grit. Results are cosmetically acceptable but somewhat deficient from a strength standpoint. I can fairly easily make indentations with my fingernail. That’s understandable since it’s meant to be a seal, not a structural component. I guess if it passes the 10 foot test and I never hit anything, it will suffice. :) Dennis C.
