The difference between wood composite kayaks and plastic/glass kayaks, is in the nature of the owners, not the materials. Wood kayak owners care about the appearence of their craft, while plastic/ glass owners apparenrly do not. If you cared less about the appearence of your floating art work, I feel you would be quite pleased with durability of your kayak. Long live the Pride of a wooden boat owner! Jerry
