I used wood on my rebuild and do not regret it. Good luck with the rebuild .

Islandtrader is correct. Drilling and filling is what i was referring to. I build a 16 ft glass over marine ply (all epoxy) 5 years ago and the only issues I've had are the handful of screw holes in the gunnel where i rushed and didn't drill n fill.
