Default Composite stringer grids

We're talking about years and years once water has intruded. And it will
intrude. It never drys once soaked.

The problem is that fiberglass is not water proof. Water migrates thru

more expensive so nobody uses it. Even with epoxy any compromise is

going
to let the water thru.


What's the impact of water on XL plywood?
