Howdy,
I have found a 1984 Sawyer Autumn Mist solo canoe that needs a little repair here and there. Trouble is I don't know what material this particular boat was made with. I hear they could be either glass or Kevlar or a combination of the two. It is painted inside and out. Might have been repainted somewhere over the years. The inside is painted like a speckled egg. I do see a very heavy course weave fabric was used.
If anyone knows how to determine if this boat is glass or Kevlar, I'd appreciate the help.
Thank in advance,
Larry
