I love eco fishing shop and the wrap is done super well and super tough. My last kayak came with slight holes in the wrapping near the front and rear bottoms, assuming it was dragged by shipping and put some slight scratches on the kayak. Which is a slight bummer for your shiny new toy, but honestly in a month there will be a few more scratches there from use. I don’t know if a few pieces of cardboard would’ve helped or not near those bottom contact areas, but still happy with the yak. And next one will most likely be thru eco as well
