OK, you at least were honest about your self-interest.

Here's a question regarding steel. I think it's a great yacht
material, but the coatings applied can make the difference between a
50 year or greater lifespan or a 10 year rust bucket.

Two-part barrier paints and foams are commonly used to protect steel.
Would you say that the most effective method of keeping steel intact
is to epoxy coat all surfaces?
