[QUOTE="richg99, post: 449200, member: 4376"] Suit yourself on finish coating the 2x4s. I may be wrong, but I don't finish them at all. Guess I believe that they will simply dry out after every dunking. A finish coat, once it gets penetrated, will hold moisture in and rot will start. Or, I am just lazy and would rather just buy new ones every five years or so. I haven't had the PVC caps on any of them for five years yet. I've had unfinished, but carpet covered, bunks on boats for a lot longer than five years in the past. [/QUOTE]
