i love wood too,i ran/operated a sawmill for over thirty years,but its disheartening to spend a lot of time fabricating,installing and meticulessly finishing wood work on a boat only to watch it deteriate after only a short time.btw do will you be loading your py at a ramp?what are your plans about stepping/unstepping the mast?i lived in wis. many years ago,your boating season is quite short huh

Season is very short... Then I'm going to Lake superior which stays on the cold side year round...But that's OK it's a beautiful place...

Plan is to haul up in spring (after hull painting) and have mast stepped once by crane at marina...They have a decent depth landing for largish boats and rent dry space for leaving on the trailer during the week...transient slips (for the weekend) are cheap and if you call ahead they will launch your boat for you and have it tied to pier.... same with pull and park if your coming in late and have to run..

End of season drop the mast and bring 'er home...
