this is my opinion from someone who has used it.

This is another reason to consider Ocean kayaks and the like. These kayaks have last 12 plus year so far being in the ocean, sun, dragged across the road, you name it. They may not be a good choice for winter northern kayakers because they are open and you will get wet but great for southern summer kayaking.

Thanks for the thread
Really? Wow, I use it on my plastic, it gives it a brilliant shine, especially when the sun here is pounding at 107 in the shade. I use to use Armorall but the salt takes it off in seconds. I can go about a month in a half. I also use it on my Scotty rod holders, makes them look shiney and new again.
But I do agree with you on the Ocean kayaks, there great, only thing I didn't like on the 14' and 16' is to many scuppers to worry about plugging, lol. It's why I am interested in the Coosa, it has a hull plate that can be changed out once it wears out from dragging you yak. I really like that concept.
I guess everyone does have there own likings. Example, most of my friends use a scupper plug, I use the practice foam golf balls to plug my scuppers. As long as your happy, and you paddle hard then life is good no matter what product you use,
Thanks for sharing Sachita. Opinions are good!
