Goop is fine. If you need structural support then plastic weld

Take your yak to OEX, they can plastic weld the holes so you will never know where they were. OR Hobie makes a welding kit with a soldering iron and different pieces of colored kayak material. But most of us shave off a piece of plastic from the yak and fill the hole with soldering iron and plastic, please do not use torch unless you have excelect skills. You can practice on a 5 gallon bucket to get the feel for the technique, shave off some plactic, drill some holes and try filling them. Within a half hour you should get the hang of it. Good luck.

You can try a product call Sun Cure available at any surf shop or Amazon use to repair surfboard. Make sure you get it in clear. I used in to repair my hobie bait tank work great. You can sand it down with hand sander or by hand. Good luck.
