I've got a rotomold Necky Chatham. If you're just getting into the sport...or are hard on your toys, rotomold is the way to go. I'm tough on my toys, so fiberglass boat would be scarred all the way through the hull by now...
I'm about to google rotomold.

I'm saying 30 seconds of research yielded...

Rotomold - Rotomold kayaks are basically indestructible. You can paddle them over rocks, drag them down trails, and throw them off the roof of your car or truck and the only signs you will see are a few dings and scratches. Rotomold is also the material that is most widely used among kayak manufacturers. This material is also the cheapest in cost of all three major materials, but also weighs about ten percent more than fiberglass does. The heavier weight does not affect how well the kayak floats.

I'm saying this is the way I will go too. I imagined that fiberglass was much lighter than plastics, but 10% for me isn't worth the extra cost or fragility.
