That's a neat looking kayak, and a nice twist on the build with the double gunwale. I'm also interested in the details of that skin and the Geocel 2310? The elasticity sounds great but the spec sheets and MSDS look like abrasion resistance may be low, and working hazards high... it seems dangerously flammable with a flashpoint cooler than my morning shower, and vapors that pool and sink like gasoline. Have you used it before?

I'm not trying to be the coating police... honestly curious about possibly easier-to-get alternatives to Goop, Zar and Coelan. Makes me wonder what the specs for other coatings looks like... I reckon you don't want to get those in your eyes or set them on fire, either, lol! : )
