I'm rough on my kayak also and unless you're worried about resale value, I wouldnt worry about it. The kayak shops around Houston can repair your kayak like new. I've see. First hand what Chris at swps can do and it's pretty amazing. Don't worry about "oyster rash", it's part of you dues as a saltwater yakker.

Though this company is elswhere, the picture is in Oregon. They can absorb a lot of impact without puncturing. I asked our raft guide a few years back how often do they see holes from the river on the single person kayaks or the rafts. Only time he saw them was from careless use of river knives.

I have an inflatable personal pontoon. Very, very durable outer shell. As long as you have a quality boat and not a pool toy, no further reinforcement is needed. You can post now and register later.
