If being a pvc fabrication must use 2 part pvc glue, that's glue + hardener. If Hypalon just order Hypalon glue + hardener. Will need proper solvents to clean area you want to glue back + knowing how to glue back properly.

Happy Boating

You want 2 part PVC glue, I use either the Polymarine or the Rib Store stuff like this. Use acetone to prep the area. Lots of 'How to' guides on Youtube.

The good news is that if its the cover that holds the speed tubes on its an easy repair, the bad news is that since this bit has gone the rest will follow quickly. I love Futura's but when they have had enough they self destuct over night
