 Structural integrity of wood?
What do you guys think is the fastest that a wooden boat can hold out at?
I'm guessing somewhere ~55mph.
Also, does anyone have any good guides on working with fiberglass?

Re: Structural integrity of wood?
Doing a quick search the fastest ratings i could find for wooden boats were for 25-35 mph. HOLD OUT AT could maybe mean 55 . . . just like the bottle says take 1-2 pain relievers and one takes 3 or 4.
Upon further investigation: &T for boat geeks . . . http://www.boatdesign.net/
