The salesman we spoke with said that a savvy theif will melt away the serial number. That is why the more subtle marking or defect that helps you prove your ownership might come in handy when you see your Kayak on the roof of a car at the 93 liquor store. Unfortunatly, serial numbers are only for honest people.
