Yes! My mind was going there too! I especially like the kayak garage
idea. Would you have to control for humidity for the skin? No doubt
paint it a light, waterproof color also.

Also, any ideas on how to make the tube into a banana (kayak) shape? I
have never worked with sonotube before.

Great ideas, Stephen!
