True, but how much flex do you need? I used epoxy resin for fiberglassing some pods on the rear of my big fiberglass boat. This stuff is flexible just a little, but hard enough to keep its shape. Good for enough for small impacts....

Josh88Ford, what are those pods for? Stability in water or to give your retriever a place to get in the boat? They appear to have finished nicely, how well do they work?

Why not use a regular out board motor? What kind is that anyway?

Yeah i think i'll try using gorrilla glue, i found out after giving my tire a good once over that all the bigger sliced chunks have come off , but for whats left i'll just use gorilla glue (epoxy is a good idea, but you get a lot of movement in the tread lugs in a bogger, and epoxy whgile it'll hold nice and strong i think it'll crack apart cause it doesn't hae enough flex, good idea though).

I snapped a picture of the lugs i'm talking about, I'll post it up tomorrow, as i need my sleep right now.

Welcome to Boggers and the wild world of chunking

Another reason gorilla glue is a good choice is because it will foam and get into the crevices you coudn't reach with the applicator. Not much you can do about the chunks but it will patch up the cuts to help prevent them from eventually chunking.
