    Well built vs flimsy

    In some thread I mentioned a well built wood boat being forever. The opposite is true too. Build it flimsy with crap epoxy and a boats life span begins counting down immediately.

    Check out this pic. Jimmy's boat had a scuff. Mine had a bit............more. Hahaha

        Looks horrible don't it? I could fix it but the boats pretty old and that was before I had accepted that there really is a difference between epoxy and good epoxy.
