[QUOTE="Johnny, post: 383897, member: 13599"] yes, in MY world, I see no issues with using what you have. For a little extra protection, you could put a rubber washer between the board and hull. When most folks here think of P/T wood on aluminum, it brings to mind full body contact such as a transom board or floor boards that have more surface area actually touching the aluminum. THAT is what causes big problems rather quickly. But what you have, I personally see no problem with it. Your contact areas are minimal. Cut a piece of rubber or some kind of plastic to insulate the board from the aluminum and you will be golden. GOOD LUCK !!!! Cedar and Redwood have a strong acid tannin, which is a natural bug and fungus repellent. It does not do well directly sandwiched to aluminum. and, again, this is strictly my "opinion". [/QUOTE]
