You can probably sand or file the worst of the stucco off. Sun degraded chalky
gelcoat can probably be restored (both its shine and original color) if you
rub it down with a cloth and some slightly abrasive fiberglass cleaner, such
as Meguires Machine Cleaner.

If it is the neoprene top cover for the rear hatch that is missing you can get
one from Snap Dragon Designs. Tell them it is for a NW Kayaks Escape size rear
hatch. Note: if you store the neoprene hatch cover off the rim and out of the
sun it will not get stretched out and will last a lot longer. If it is the
hard cover that is missing, let me know and I'll tell you what I would do to
make a fairly simple but effective replacement for it.
