Does it make a difference to wax the bottom of my kayak?
Would a boatwax, which racers use do the trick?
Or is it just a waste of time?

Waxing kayaks is a myth. The only wax paddlers use is for grip
on their paddles.

It's a Perception 17ft Eclipse (Airolite)

If you want more speed, get another kayak. The Eclipse is
average at speed and mediocre in handling.
