Default new kayak question

Just bought a new CD Scirocco (plastic) today. It's my first kayak.
As we were loading it on the truck I noticed a deflection in the hull
about the size of the palm of my hand. The salesman, who I've talked
to a good bit and seems to be an honest guy, assured me that was
normal from sitting on the rack in the wharehoue. He said by the time
I got home the heat from the sun would no doubt have it back to
normal. Well, I got home and it's still there. I left it out in the
sun for a few hours and it hasn't gone back to normal. I'm beginning
to think maybe I was sold a blem.

I'm sure a lot of you have had more experience with these plastic
kayaks. What's up? Is the deflection normal from sitting on the
rack, and should I expect it to go back to a normal shape?

Thanks for any input.
