| The two " dents" as you called them aren't dents at all. They are just the way the crosslink3 expands in the sun. Thats the way it has always been, the large "dent" pops down when its turned over. The darker section on the right side of the first pic is water that ran on it from the hollow handle of one of the paddles when I flipped it over. The dark strip down the far end is a factory drag reinforcement. They put those on the back end of the keel so when you drag 'em through shallow rocky creeks you don't wear a hole in the bottom.
The small " dent" was a place where two of the three layers had separated. I asked the company what the proper fix was and they said drill a hole, fill a syringe with epoxy, force some in and clamp it together. Its been fine ever since. |
