[Paddlewise] Modifiying Plastic boats

I would like to upgrade my seat and rudder peddle system and possibly add an
optional down wind sail.  The problem is that my kayak is a plastic
Perception Eclipse.  These these modifications require drilling new holes
and filling existing ones.  I am very very concerned about the hull
cracking, or getting too spongy after too much sugery.  Have any experience
or ideas about this?

Thanks!
