I've been offered two large blue Taylor fenders, but am told they leak.
What kind of cement/glue would work to fix them?

I have an idea to push a small piece of material with this yet
un-named substance on it through the hole like they repair radial tires,
but don't want to screw it up by using the wrong stuff.

Check with West Marine. I think Taylor has a lifetime warrantee on the
fenders.

Gene,
It seems the solution is easy, just pump the suckers up till they split.
