dry-sailed boat "maintenance"?
Behave Bart, the older MacGregor sailboats were fine for their purpose.

Most boats just need wax.
MacGregor boats need one or two
dozen 1" holes drilled below the
waterline.

For a 14-17ft daysailer/dinghy, is there a meaningful difference in
the maintenance required for various boat construction materials?
That is, for a boat which is trailer-sailed (Inland Waterway on the
Florida east coast primarily), is there a real distinction between the
work required for one of the Hunter ACP boats (JY15, 146, 170 ..) and
a more usual glass boat such as the Capri 16.5? Is a bottom coat of
expoxy necessary? Anything beyond a boat cover, etc.?
Thanks, and if there are already answers to this pls just provide a
pointer.
