.I really love wood on a boat.
I agree !!!!

I also think you need some UV protection, Awlspar/Awlbright? like Joey said or a good varnish…I’m not sure that the mirror finish has that??.
Me personally … I would add some color (stain) to the wood to bring out that grain. Don’t need to go super dark just something to give it some "pop".
I’m just not a big fan of “blonde” wood on a boat….but that just me

Watch the gimbals when the rods go into the holders …. They will leave a mark !!! and then more work over the winter. I treally sucks to spend all that time finishing something and have someone drive and a butt into and gouge it !!! It happened to me on the big boat...twice [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
