I like this idea, but.. how long have you had this on your boat? I wonder if, after a few years, it might go from brown to green/blue. I know this takes a long time, but a kayak that is used a lot is a bad place for metal, all the salt water and fresh water and other nasty stuff. On the other hand, it might look good as slightly corroded metal, like one of those antique windvanes.
Just a thought.
