Can you see me now ?? A $10 Experiment.
I recently bought a 2017 demo Revo 13 in dune color. Most of my yaks have been Yum Yum Yellow, b/c I like the color, and more importantly the visibility. You don't get much visibility with "dune", so I bought some contact paper and Gorilla tape- see the results below. It's ugly, but that's OK. More interesting than plain "concrete grey".
As for the new yellow Revo 13 next to it, it's my friend's new yak.

I like it, but why stop there? Add more to the bottom for rub and keel protection. :smt003

I used to dream about an orange Porsche GT3 RS. Yes, for visibility reason as well :smt005

I don't want it to look like shark bait!

Cool idea... my lazy ass would've simply laid an orange strip all around :smt044 What's the contact paper used for.. sealant?

contact paper as base layer, so so I have less of a sticky mess to clean up if I take it off. 90% underneath the tape is covered by contact paper. Only the outer edges are covered by tape.

I would let you do that to my boat.

I still have 2/3 of the roll left! Not bad for a 20 minute quick job! thx.

It looks sexy. Orange is my favorite color.

Does anyone with the club have access to colored vinyl tape like the kind they use for personalizing our kayaks with our names? It seems like that would work for this application?

I hope it lasts

Very cool
