I had just bought a new welded jon boat. The wood in the transom is covered with aluminum, but there are openings along each side of the wood where you can feel the wood in there. I just thought I might put some Thompson's on the wood there to help keep moisture from penetrating into this porous endgrain of the wood, as I know the wood is not treated or anything. Even if it is not exposed to direct rain, there is a lot of moisture in the air sometimes and I'm sure the wood would absorb this. Maybe I am looking into this too far, just thought it might be an easy way to help extend the life of the wood.</p></blockquote><p></p>
