It wouldn't just cover the crack but would repair it. Apply it with a glue brush (or crappy old brush, you're gonna ruin it) on the inside and outside. Work it in a little and let it sit overnight. Test it and if it still leaks, do it again til it stops.
That was a great photo. Nice to see you, BTW. Sorry about your rocks. At least you had fun.
