Let me know if this is a myth - some goon at the marina last year was telling me that if my "stringers are encapsulated, the wood within it could completely rot and the boat will still be just fine". He said the wood is pretty much a redundancy when boat builders make them that way. So what do you think? Hogwash or true?
I'm working on my deck now and that comment is haunting me. My boat is forty years old it's got encapsulated stringers. Should I worry or is it smooth sailing?
Thanks!
