JonBoatfever Well-known member Joined Dec 21, 2010 Messages 305 Reaction score 0 Location Greenville SC Jul 14, 2011 #3 so is it safe for the wood to get wet?

I know its more expensive but depending on what this boat is going to be for and how long your going to keep it, it could be a better option.
