You'd be surprised how durable some kayaks are. There is a graphite & something-or-other compound that you can put on a hull, which make it very abrasion resistant.

I will get lots of pics when/if I go ahead and do this. I think it would be a pretty fun thing to do, rewarding too!

I am still up.. still working on pix for a "project"..

that kayak would be an ambitious project. good it is durable. the ones I have seen are multi-type wood & to a high sheen. If I did that (and most say it takes at least half a year)..it would be hung in my living room as ART WORK..not taken into water!!!

lol

Sad note ..I only got out on kayaks a few times this summer. Normal is about 2 dozen times. Life got in the way...sigh
