Thank you so much for the suggestions. I think I will stay away from plastic just because of the weight. It is often just me and the kids camping. My 12 year old is helpful, but he is still lacking some height and strength to help get things on my pick-up. I would rather spend a bit more and have it under 55lbs. !
Good decision IMO. A few extra scratches that the kids might put on a used Kevlar dragging over rock won't matter too much IMO. Nobody sees the scratches on the bottom anyway. If they have a mishap and do more serious damage you could do a reasonable fix with a fiberglass kit from CTC....and 'lesson learned' for you and the kids. Have fun choosing and paddling.
