Its a 2012 used kayak. From what I've been told, Tahe knows that there is a tendency for their carbon fiber kayaks to be susceptible to water discoloration. The carbon fiber/epoxy doesn't have any protection from the elements as a painted to gel coat kayak does. I'm curious to see what they recommend for a finish topping. I'm thinking maybe it will be a good quality auto wax.
