My friend is giving away a 12ft gamefisher but its the plastic one. Inside the boat has some cracks and you can see the foam. Anyone restore/fix one of these?

ABS plastic is not repairable once it starts to crack

ABS cracks after the oils leave the plastic.

ABS is good for about 15-20 years

Sears hasn't sold an ABS gamefisher boat for almost 50 years

You can try to smear goo on it, however the plastic will just break next to the patch
