If its the valve that's started to come away try reattaching it with aquaseal. If the seam has come apart then it's virtually impossible to repair, I've tried with aquaseal and stormsure, but within a couple of sessions it's come apart again. In the end I gave up and stuck a folded up 16" bicycle inner tube with a car type valve poking through the valve hole and pumped that up, works a treat.
