I am thinking about buying one or the other for lakes and rivers.
Maybe a rare ICW trip. I know little about either so I'm hoping to get
some sort of discussion going.

Jim, picking them is easy. Get down on your knees and crawl up UNDER the
deck on them.....

Is the plywood raw and unprotected by even the simplest of paints and
EXPOSED to the water splashing up from the lake underneath?

Yes - You don't want that one....rotten floors MUST result!

Now, we've already eliminated about 90% of them with this ONE test at any
boatshow. soaked up carpet on top....exposed wood on the bottom....a
disaster in the making!

I always thought wood should be PAINTED to make it last...didn't you?
