: Is there a site that gives a good rundown of the pros/cons of all
: the common skin materials?
: My main concern is probably durability, since I have never paddled
: a kayak before I am worried about abrasion and punctures, but
: price is a huge concern as well. I will also admit that I don't
: care for all the wrinkles that I see in PVC covered boats.

Hmm...not that I've ever seen, but it seems like it would be good information. There really arn't all that many realistic canidates for a SOF cover so wouldn't be a very big undertaking if someone had the time.

Having it unbiased would be a trick, everyone seems to have the own favorite, like me :)
