Rec boats tend to get abused
If I had a buck for every time I've seen someone drag one across a parking lot, I could buy a new sea kayak! Plus, they tend to get used by kids a lot, who are equally careless and abusive.
That said, I tend to beat the snot out of my boats in coastal "gunkholing", rock garden play and surf, but I also know how to repair them. However, I would never represent them as "mint" or "barely used" and when I've sold boats, I've always detailed any damage, repairs or modifications.
