: For some kayaks it is heavier than necessary. For some it isn't
: enough

: It depends on whether you plan to bounce the kayak off rocks. if
: not, then 4oz is enough.

I don't plan on bouncing it of rocks but I do plan beaching it, lots of beaches around here range from fine sand to small stone to large sheets of flat rock. This kayak will see lots of salt water use for years.
What are your thoughts on reinforcing patches ?
