For little scratches and chips in the bottom can I use a tube of epoxy that they sell at wal mart in the boating section. A couple of the big ones I can just see brown. I have a procraft 1750 V from 1986. Also how rough of water is too rough. I go over waves and if slpas the water hard when moving pretty quick. Will the boat break if I hit a wave too hard?<br /><br />Thanks
