Starboard is heavy and not inexpensive. You might find it easier and
cheaper to buy some redi-made dock boxes somewhere.


I still like Luan BS1088 for light and strong. That unfinished (bare
wood) boat is still in my backyard now nearly ten years, no rot. I would
make nice boxes with some Mahogany trim and 9mm 1088 Luan... They would
be light and strong.. and they wouldn't rot easily.

Still? When is the last time you made a boat?



He's had a finished boat in his yard for a decade and hasn't bothered to
paint or varnish it? It's still bare wood?


What's it to you, ahole? Perhaps he's doing a materials test.
