There are generally two distinct types of people who own Boston Whaler boats:

--people who like to work with wood, wood tools, sand paper, sawdust, wood dust, cleaners, solvents, resins, stains, finishes, and other products, and

--people who like to keep wood well-cared for so they don't need any of the stuff listed above
