if its perspex it cant be
if its perspex it cant be repaired. just replace it. that stuff does tend to go that way when exposed to the elements. had the same in my old boat and i just replaced . easy enough to do , just make sure you cut the new ones out exactly the same as old ones using the old ones as templates.If drilling is required ,make sure its a sharp drill bit as perspex can break easily
