Next time when bending or molding HMW plastics, use HEAT! You can basically mold the entire sheet to fit the hull bottom. Boiling water is great for bending and molding it because of heat distribution, but also a rosebud torch, applied sparingly, and other heating methods can be used. Also, consider cyanocrylate/powder welding for joining pieces together. You will come up with a more robust design altogether.

For marking black uhmw, silver sharpies, or white paint pens are your best bet. Also for filling seams and gouges, you can take a small scrap, like a 1/4" wide strip, light the end on fire, and drip it like a candle. Definitely not good to breath in, but that at home plastic base welding.

That would be a great sport, almost like rally racing, timed run up a streak of shallow river or creek, jumping over sandbars, hopping out as fast as you can to push your boat off of obstacles. Great event to attend, good spectator sport as well, not too expensive as well so low cost of entry.

And damage it causes to boat that cost tons to build in parts not to mention labor that went to it. That armor is there to protect against rocks, not enable it to run on rock like its normal. Also leaving to expedition like that with out checking and double checking things like battery. Its same thing with bikes. You go to do physical work for whole day until you are exhausted, then tip your bike on its side and if you cant lift it up and kick to start, then its too heavy for you, that is just one of the things to consider when preparing to leave for expedition like that, cause you are utterly fucked if you run into issues middle of nowhere.

Is there a reason you couldn't heat and bend the plastic to "mold" it to the bottom of the boat rather than cut and bend? I think the size of the piece would make it tricky but not impossible. Either way, looks great!
