Kevlar for the hull???

I'm finally going start to my second Guillemot(check is in the mail,Nick) I've gotten into a lot of areas with rocky shore lines. I'd like to have the confidence to make the landing. So on the second boat I was thinking of beefing up the hull...poss Kevlar. Although I'd like to keep the woodwork on the deck work pretty, I don't mind the sheerline down being gold.

Any suggestion for combining glass and Kevlar? Or am I way off base with this approch?

As usual thanks a lot!!
