Wow, that was exuberant. It is hard to argue with morons like you hence my lack of response. You are wearing me down and beating me with stupidity. Boats should be dry as far as the structure and I never said that all boats are dry. Wet boats are a nightmare.

Not sure if this is directed at me or not, but I'll run with you anytime on "offshore never" Lake Michigan. Earlier in this thread you said nobody could tell if your boat was run in salt, post up some pics of your boat. Engine compartment, transom, trailer. I like cigs and have never seen your boat

So I guess seals don't go bad, caulk doesn't dry, and bolts never loosen!!! I'd guess more than half the boats on the market have some type of water intrusion. It's a fact of life. I'd be willing to bet your boat has moisture. Go live under a rock.

I'm a salt water boater and have been all my life. Thanks to about half of you guys, I find myself developing thalassaphobia, better known as a fear of salt water. I'm even thinking about eating French fries without salt!

Seriously, all boats need preventative maintenance and if you're in salt water, allow a little bit more cleaning time to keep things looking new. Every time my boat hits the water (it almost never stays in overnight) I know there will be 3 hours of cleaning afterwards.

If you think 100% of salt water boats are not so good then don't buy one. Simple. Personally, I would never overlook a saltwater boat, I've always owned them and with the correct maintenance, I've never had any significant issue that would not have occurred in fresh water.

Never argued any of that (except that my boat has moisture, because is does not) your garbage was not really worthy of a response...and probably still is not.
