Oilcanning is a fairly common problem usually caused by improper storage or transport of your kayak, especially if it's hot out. Gently heating your hull (either by laying your kayak upside down in the sun on a warm/hot day or by using a heat gun CAREFULLY) MIGHT pop the dent out. If you were dealing with a single-hulled kayak, a little gentle pressure on the area with the dent while it's warm/hot would definitely do the trick. Not sure how I would approach a double hulled kayak, but it would probably be a combination of heat and pressurizing the inside of the hull or heat and water on the inside of the hull...would have to experiment.

My ocean pro 225 will tilt up but when I try to tilt down the motor doesn't run
If this happens at both the command points ( remote control AND lower engine cover buttons) then check your relays.
You'll find both relays at the engine, 2 black cubes about 2cm wide.
The relay with green wiring is for down movement. The blue wiring is UP.
Switch both relays. If the engine goes down but not up. replace the relay. Otherwise check the wiring. One will be loose or broken.

No poly-plastics of the type used in manufacturing can only be armor-all surface cleansed but makes the craft very slippery to lift and use. Color is restored though. Make sure there are no brittle areas that have been 'cooked' by the sun while stored in a yard. IMPORTANT!

How do you put an odometer on a kayak
The best solution is a good marine GPS unit. It will have options to plot your course and give you elapsed distances. I don't own one myself, but many of the people I paddle with do...and it's fascinating to see how many miles are added just bouncing back and forth across the missouri or the mississippi during a putatively 20 mile jaunt.
Just remember, even if it claims to be water proof, a clear drybag is your friend...why put "water proof" to the test if you don't have to?
I just bought a new boat and need to buy a boat
Never buy a trailer with the same capacity as the weight of your boat! This can be very dangerous! Instead, make sure the trailer's capacity is at least twice that of the weight of the boat, all your gear, and the boat's motor.
