I would use Eternabond tape and make the patch overlap the edges by 2-3 inches. GREAT stuff and made exactly for that kind of problem.

Eternabond tape and your good to go. Just clean the area well and apply Eternabond. You'll never leak there again.

Clean the spot that you are going to glue with denatured alcohol.

We use Eternabond and clean with lacquer thinner which was the number one choice on the Eternabond how to video clips when we first used Eternabond. They now sell their own line of cleaning mixture.

Another vote for Eternabond.

when I patched a hole in mine, I got the patch repair kit from camping world that had a roll of epdm material that already had stickum on the back, put that down, then it came with a tube of silicone sealer stuff to glob onto the edges.
