Location: With my son on the water		I never sealed the wood as I don't know if it would hold? It could also hold moisture too? I honestly don't have that answer?

One thing that has worked for me is DON'T Carpet the bottom of the bunks so the moisture can get out and the wood dries out. Most of the carpet is almost water proof but the water still gets in the seams then the carpet holds the moisture in. If you use you boat several times a week the wood is wet all season and can rot out really fast.

That's what I have seen.

I also know guys who don't use any carpet at all and only use the plastic strips. The intial investment is larger but they NEVER have to replace anything.

Good luck and have a good day.
