I have a Wave and considering buying a Bravo. I was all good with buying it until the seller told me that the Bravo has been sitting against a trailer fender and it has left a dent in one of the hulls. The Bravo is located in SE USA and has been sitting in the heat I assume. The seller is confident that they dent will come out naturally over time, is that true?

Hi Matt:

I am not sure the thickness of a Bravo's hull compared to that kayak in the video but I am assuming the Bravo is thicker? Is that rotomold of the kayak the same type of rotomold as the Bravo? I guess you using the word "might" should scare me. Thanks for your time.

Maybe a little thicker. Same material and process as a Kayak.
