Default wood permanently under water

In article ,

Nope. It'll rot. Almost any wood will, if you leave it immersed in water long
enough. Some will rot faster than others, and pine will be one of the fastest.


I agree completely with regards to the use it's being put. It's not
going to be a completely anaerobic environment.

OTOH, wood harvested from deep underwater can be worked a hundred years
after submersion.
