Avoid Fiberglas at all costs.

Why avoid fiberglass at all costs?

I understand it costs more, lasts longer, is guaranteed longer. reduces
the need for chemicals and is smoother which some people think is a
disadvantage. But I wonder if there are delamination and blistering
issues which can be common when there is improper application or poor
temperature control on hulls.
