Cascamite (or any variation on the name) and Resorcinol are both two part glues that are both waterproof and very strong

Cascamite is a white glue and Resorcinol is red. With Cascamite the two parts are premixed and just require mixing with water, where as the Resorcinol is a liquid and a powder and needs no water mixed with it.

Hope that helps.
