Nice wood and nice craftsmanship, natural. Ugly wood or what was I doing construction - paint. > 2.. If you had a skin on frame kayak would you favorably consider > painting the deck? Why limit yourself to just the deck? I've seen some very cool looking skin/frame boats with eyes, mouths etc. Put the decorative paint/dye on before putting on the sealant.
