Jeff,

I understood the quick build and even the for profit. I just had not thought thru exactly what would be successful for both.
Accepting reduced life of the boat is where I stumble in what is possible.
My cost of build and time to build both suffer as a consequence and that difference is what makes this thread interesting.

Do you seal the edges of the plywood frames? With what if no epoxy? Varnish?

Marc
