Default dry-sailed boat "maintenance"?

I think you mean hunters

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.
