Rust
#1
What's up with the rust factor? I've only had the new toon out once and was tweaking it a little today and noticed rust already! ODC Super Sport 9. I'm not happy. Love the boat otherwise. May have to consider taking it back and upgrading to an alum. frame boat once my whitewater kayak sells.

Would a "Powdered Coated" frame hold up better?

[cool][#0000ff]Steel plus water equals rust. Although I have not heard much about the problem, I guess it is to be expected if you have an unprotected steel frame.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]Powder-coating will reduce the problem, but not eliminate it. Wherever there is a hole drilled in the frame, or a ding in the finish, you will get rust.[/#0000ff]
