I suppose if enough paddles had made noise about it there would be a cure. 
Oh, as far a scratches on your hull mirroring you paddling experiences, 
please translate directly to wrinkles and scars; on your body; on your 
face, telling a history of your life. Any takers????

Fiberglass gun stock makers have had camo patterns for years that aren't 
green and brown but black, grey or whatever with white spiderweb or random web patterns. Perfect to hide scratches in 
a composite.
