Crack in Black Water Tank, How to Fix It Temporarily?

[Markus Meyer]

Not worth stressing about. You have one of two choices - either pull it out and have it replaced with new, or try and have it repaired. You mentioned prior repairs and current leaks. If you don't get down to "new" resin/plastic, repairs won't hold too well. Kind of like painting metal that isn't ground down to bare again.

Are there no fiberglass repair places you can go to if you don't want to do this yourself? Bodyshops even? Fiberglass repair isn't a big deal for those that do it every day - boating industry, RV industry, car repair industry, etc.

Good luck!

Markus

Well, I actually didn't ask for repair ideas at first on WOG. Maybe I should have. We are pretty stressed out.

Thanks, Markus.
