I think I've found my method.

Gonna find a 3/8" thick or so HDPE sheet, cut and heat shape it to fit, and then melt it directly to the hull.  Probably will just use a plastic cutting board - most of those are HDPE.  Will bevel the edges beforehand so they aren't sharp.  That should give me plenty of insurance against the abrasion from loading and launching.  Think of it like a super patch.

I will post pics of the process and finished product.

Glad to hear it, Sonny!  We'll see how many of the original 6 we can get.  PK is making noises like he's coming...  Etienne...  hopefully!   :smt003  Hawk and Chris...  I wouldn't take those odds, but would be great to see them.  We're talking 17 years after the innaugural run...  OMG.   :smt005

Dang no protection at all?

You rebel!

I'm still feeling Kevin should attach his nice keel guards with Shoe Goo or some industrial type silicone.

I like this stuff for sealing everything and embedding my transducer in the hull, it's pretty bomber even when submerged. JB Weld is too brittle you need a flexible bond.

Hope I don’’t have to do this too often.  Super paranoid bout crunching sounds.  I think poly is mega durable.   I’m pretty rough on my stuff and sometimes I wish I was more careful.  Any hoo…I tore all my keel eazy off da stealth and hope I don’t have to learn glass repair first hand but I have all the stuff.  You guys are reminding me to take it easy on the off loading and shore landings so I can enjoy my yaks for many years… :smt006

I'm reminded in this pic, I got out knee deep in the mud ish and put down a towel to anchor the landing...
