Dry boats made with epoxy and plywood?

How dry is your boat I ask, is the bilge free of water may be one test but another and you need to be honest here is what happens to the interior fabrics and fittings over time?

I spent a year on a 38ft carvel planked double ender, great boat but brass screws soon went red from moisture.

I then owned two GRP Endurance 37s, they were better but moisture was still there, if less so than the traditional carvel planked boat.


Check the picture, it will enlarge if you click on it.

These fire extinguishers have been on this epoxy/ply built boat nearly fifteen years, they are rust and corrosion free just like the rest of the fittings inside the boat!

Epoxy, saving you time,saving you money.
