: The way I abuse my kayaks, I am already frightened to take this

: work on a kayak because they get scratched on the first day I
: use them and the rest is downhill from there. To wit, I
: discovered a cracked hull just under and in front of my seat in
: the Night Heron I am working on. I have no idea where it came
: from since I have been careful about how I handle the think. I
: filled it with some leftover epoxy for now. Gonna hafta do some
: sanding later on to clean it up and patch it with a spot of
: glass. It has no glass on the inside and only 4-oz on the
: outside with taped seams inside. Did that to keep her light. I
: guess I am going to have to pay more attention to this baby. To
: her credit, she never complained about the crack,,,kept
: silence...prolly waiting for me to get far from shore before
: letting water in and then smirking.
