    The deck is splitting and cracking on the surface and join to the hull. What glue is recommended to prevent further cracking and fill the cracks?

    Thanks

    When glueing plastics - and I believe the Trent has such a deck - you have at least 2 ways of approaching the issue - after ascertaining the chemistry of the plastic = important (ABS, PS, PVC, Epoxy, etc.):

    o go to UHU or any other of the key adhesives companies. They offer (mostly) excellent Q&A tools to answer your question.

    o navigate to some leading plastics companies. They do it other way round and tell you which adhesive to use for which plastic.

    . . . and if you get the same answer, perfect!

    For cracks I usually use car filler (they offer a certain elasticity)
