I second what Wog said. We all find rot and wet foam at the bottom of our rebuilds so we try to figure out ways to prevent it from happening again. When in reality if we do a slightly better job at encapsulating everything than the factory did, and we do a better job than previous owners of taking care of our boats, they will last a lifetime. Most of our boats ended up the way they did due to poor maintenance, and them being left uncovered with water in them for extended periods of time. A good cover or dry storage would have prevented most of the water damage we find in old boats. You're gonna build it better than factory, and that should work out fine.
