[quote=lawrencer2003]RE: On a related note, has anyone put a 'wear strip' on the bottom of thier hulls?.
I use Marinetex. 3-4 inch thin strip applied with a taping knife along the entire hull length and sanded smooth. (I just recently learned you can smooth it wearing surgical gloves and dish soap if you want to avoid the sanding.
Stuff wears like iron and the sand contact will further smooth it. I touch it up every spring. My solution elicits shock and horror from Nacra racers but it was a matter of preserving the bottom against the baby head rocks, pebbles and course glacial sand of Lake Mi. (Works great on daggers and rudders too!)
