They built up three layers of glass fibre and resin to level out the break.

The Patch
After some back-and-forth, it was decided that it would be most expedient to get the tank fixed by a local marine repair person rather than the Quebec-based manufacturer, ZCL. Our retired professor (and expert boat-builder) Mike Elmitt graciously stopped by to assess the damage and explain the basics of fibreglass work. Then one fine Saturday morning Mark and Bill came in to get the job done.
They built up three layers of glass fibre and resin to level out the break.
... and then topped it off with two layers a large patch over the whole area.
... and we were ready to go again.
