[QUOTE="Vermonster, post: 274379, member: 7992"] Did you seal the wood with anything? Pine is a bit soft in my mind, but It likely depends on what kind of motor you're attaching to it. Most would recommend exterior grade plywood sealed. Epoxy and Paint for sealing is ideal, but 3 coats of spar urethane would be fine as well. If it's truly just a "Row Boat" the pine will likely do, but I would still seal it with something. [/QUOTE]
