Hi
Ofcaurse you wouldn't but that don't change the fact ,that nomatter
what material they all carry on somewhere equaly in years, if you
mistread a wooden boat or forget to prime right inside a steel hull ,
you end up the same . Still why is it then I seen 125 year old wooden
boats that would have asked each and every piect replaced, shape a nice
10 mm. unbreakable beautifull shape of hull ---- would it be "best"
just to not get a new glasfiber hull way after the main parts of the
old hull was dusted away at a way lower cost than that of a full blown
restore - have a 38 foot perfect hull at a fraction a new glasfiber
would cost ?
But sure in a way you are right, --- if you have the cash, know how and
why to spend it to keep any of these wonders alive , but realy maby the
only right thing to do, is to build new and then as it allway's
happened ,rather scrap it when it no longer can provide the safety.
Maby investing in new technikes also shuld promise both cheaper ,better
and stronger boats.
