Buying a used Caribe?
We have a small C10 on offer.

It looks structurally ok but the hypalon is faded. Is there any way to bring it back to a better look and is faded hypalon a major worry?

There appears to be no leaks.

Went and had a look today. Its really chalky and the material is starting to frey and wear through. Probably best to avoid it?
