I'm constructing a 10" tunnel hull and am at the point where I need to
seal/finish the interior of the hull before putting the decking on. The
boat is not going to be left out in the elements or used in sal****er but
will be stored indoors when not used.
My question to the group is this, can I use a good grade of spar varnish to
seal the interior or would the epoxy encapsulation be the better choice? (I
plan on using epoxy and fiberglass on the hull exterior).

Epoxy!
My boat is 18+ years old now with no rot problems as far as I know.
The last then years it has been outdoor 356 day / year at N 59+.
Please explo http://hem.bredband.net/b262106/

Any brands of varnish or epoxy to suggest?


You don't need brand name epoxy. I have used a local (Swedish) make.
A little more research is needed if you go down that route rather
than the brand name route.

Good luck,
