Super glue gels tend to work the best. Make sure the ingredient list contains cyanoacrylate or is mentioned on the label. That way you will be sure that is not toxic and safe for marine use.

Cheers
Steve

I don't know if being cyanoacrylate is enough. I used some Krazy Glue gel on a Leather frag. It soon separated and a week later still looks bad. I heard today there is a thick gel that works. It is not Krazy Glue. The guy I heard it from says he got it at Zeller's

The superglue gel at home hardware is pretty good. The containers are pretty much a one time use. Theyr'e only $1-2, so not too bad, If you can have a bunch of stuff too glue at once, that is the best route.

GARF's web site recommends many types of Gel glues but actually warns of "Crazy Glue" But I have used many different types.
Ocean Aquatics sell the glue Wendell uses.
