Hi all,

After a bit of advice!

I've recently picked up a cheap inflatable tender, but the transom rubber mounts onto the tubes have come mostly unglued. It works okay when its inflated as they sort of self locate, but I fear once I put an outboard on it bad things will happen. I want to re-glue these, and I have a plan for tensioning them down, but I'm not sure what sort of glue to use. It's a Plastimo tender and its a fair age.

Pictures attached, and advice appreciated! Many thanks!

I decided to try CT1. I make some shaped plywood to go around the tubes, cleaned the gap, applied the glue, and clamped it down. Side one went well, so I'm now doing the second side. Fingers crossed!
