I’m getting ready to take the P14 down a river that can be very rocky, unpredictable. It’s been down north Ontario rivers, so some wear is apparent. At some point, skids will likely be necessary, especially when I take it down N Wisconsin streams. I’ve always used Kevlar felt skids but I’m interested in keeping weight to a minimum.
Will Dynel resins adhere well to Kevlar gel coat? Are Dynel skids as durable as Kevlar felt? How much weight is saved? Is a vacuum application necessary?
I’d like to order some precut skids to take north with me to be prepared. I plan on using this boat hard this summer.
