Re: wooden hull

Guslap, try woodenboat.com. Huge forum on nothing but wooden hulls. A wooden hull is all about past care. So many variables. Can be a great boat, lots of nostagia, very strong but only if the construction and maintenance has been exceptional. Wood is like any other constructon material, only as good as its builder.
