....as the boat ages,
fiberglass will require more maintenance.

Really? What kind of maintenance?


You should already know. Don't you do any maintenance on your fiberglass
boat?


I wash and wax it, and paint the bottom. But as it ages, it doesn't
require any MORE maintenance.

So you're stating for the record, that in your opinion, gelcoat lasts
forever?

Also, you have not had to do any cosmetic work like patching small dings
or scratches etc etc?

Until I sell the boat.

Are you nuts? When I get dings or scratches, it's time to get a new
boat.

Well in that case, let me congratulate you... you do indeed have a truly
maintenance free boat. However, buying a new one is an expensive way to
fix the little things. Most people can't afford it.

I think you missed the basic economic principle in effect here, Doug.
Never spend more to repair something than it is worth after the
repair

Well, most people can't afford to buy a new Harley every year either.
Most people can't afford to go to strip clubs every night, either.
