I too like the dark lines and the cockpit hole lining strips. I learned a trick once from an RC yacht maker that roofing paper strips laid in between decking and then sanded off flush make very realistic caulking lines. I did it once on a 35 inch model,and it looked pretty good, I'll post a picture sometime. I think this would have a nice effect, but I'm not brave enugh to try it yet, maybe a couple of kayaks down the road.
