Is the cooler fiberglass? If so, why not sand it a bit, and patch it with a layer of fiberglass and epoxy...then paint over it.

This would strengthen the area as well as seal it... and if it is cracking, chances are pretty good it needs some reinforcement.

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.
