OK so is there a big difference in viscosity?

Nah. bugger all...but there is a diference.


So you'll accept it's all in the osmotic pressure?

All?
Nope.

So if there were no osmotic pressures there would still be blistering
below the waterline???

Thinner? You have some viscosity data to back this up?


Yep
http://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/21_397.html

Hmm.... Fresh water @60F, 1.13 Centistokes, sea water @? 1.15 cSt, looks like fresh water is in fact thinner?

Pretty small difference though, plus a huge variation with temperature, surely this is not the explanation?
Instead of the insipid one word repartee, why not be a little less obtuse and simply provide us with your explanation for
the problem at hand?

Cheers

More likely fresh water exhibits a higher osmotic pressure because the difference in water
concentration is greater in fresh than brine. (osmotic pressure being proportional to the differences in concentration on either side of the membrane)

I'm not an expert, just an interested bystander.

Of course you do realize that while molecular size has something to do with viscosity, molecular shape and charge distribution play a much larger
role? Not being a chemist I don't know if there is a difference between the H20 molecules in fresh and salt water, hell maybe the Na and Cl ions
somehow bind to the porosities of the gel coat and tend to "clog" them thus slowing the process.

Just another interested bystander:

I'm not an expert either... but it seems to me that the vapor pressure would have more to do with it than viscosity.

Of course, if you want *real* answer, just ask Navvie...

Actually Nav, without the osmotic pressure there would probably NOT be
blistering below the waterline.
Water would still penetrate the gelcoat, react with the chemicals in
the resins and provide the circumstances for osmosis, but if the
pressure didn't exist then thers wouldn't be enough force built up to
produce the blister.


Yes, I'd say that's right 'cos I've rarely seen blisters above the water
line...
