This is my exact thinking. I can take 2 or 3 years to build a rock solid, life long boat as long as I have one I can use regularly.

As for the wood in the boat, ideally I would like to have no wood at all in the boat. Seacast is the pourable stuff correct? I have a bad taste about some composites as my buddy's boat had a composite floor put in and around his gas tank it actually got soft and spongy due to water getting in screw holes. I thought that was the sole purpose of the composite?? Not sure exactly what it was but I need to try to find out so I can avoid it.
