Again..what did you use 5200 for ?
I have definitely had it take a number of days to cure. here
I would use 5200 Only for underwater applications ( 5200 fast cure for different applications ).
It needs moisture to cure. Strange because in FL you usually have high humidity. Lay some wet towels near the area glues with the 5200.
Proven uses of 3M Adhesive Fast Cure 5200 include: Fiberglass deck to fiberglass hull, chine, wood to fiberglass, double planking, porthole frames and deck fittings, bilges, under moldings, stern joints, hull seams above and below the waterline, butt or fill blocks, centerboard trunk joints, deck housing, between struts and planking and teak decks to plywood to name a few.
Please Note: This is NOT recommended as a deck seam sealer on teak decks because it may be permanently softened by certain solvents, teak cleaners or sealers. It is also NOT recommended for bonding windows. here
3M™ Adhesive Fast Cure 5200 is a high performance, flexible polyurethane. This adhesive creates an extremely strong seal that retains its strength above or below the waterline. Use to adhere patches, hardware and sacrificial cover material to sailcloth. 3M Marine Adhesive Sealant 5200 is waterproof and becomes tack free in 1-2 hours and fully cured in 48 hours. It will remain workable with a trowel or spatula up to 4 hours after application.
Dan Neri, Master Sailmaker and Author, recommends 3M™ Adhesive Fast Cure 5200 throughout his book, "The Complete Guide to Sail Care & Repair".
I have no idea of weight but we have an iboater here that builds pontoons for a living. he will probably pop in. here
Can you beach it sideways and get to the location of the leak? If not maybe a marina has a trailer you can use.
Re: will 5200 cure underwater? more
if at a dock rent an engine hoist, nail a 2x4 in front of the wheels more
Marine epoxy stick made by bondo will adhere and set underwater. Use a swim mask and go to the leak. It would be a good time to stop the leak first. here
