| Which wood would you?
What wood WOULD you use, if you would use wood? Pine? Oak? Poplar? (soft) Birch? (soft, also) Ash? Hickory? Are there any panels that can be used in lieu of plywood, like slabs of fiberglass? Any inorganic/inert materials that can be used for pilothouse framing?
Sorry if I'm using too much bandwidth asking all these newbie questions. All my other boats were factory fiberglass. Building with wood and then protecting it in a marine environment is new stuff, though I have been a professional builder and painter with plenty of exterior trim experience - I used a lot of boating products to solve residential problems.
