    Nope....all pretty much balsa cored. He should not be worried bout that. Water intrusion will hurt most anything.....

    Wood transom & stringers also. Bullets are well built with 100% encapsulation. If the boat was well cared for he shouldn't have anything to worry about.

    And balsa rots at about the same rate as the so called composite materials used in other boats

    This is a very true statement, you see a lot of threads on here with people asking what boats have wood in them, the real question is whether your getting water in the hull or not. Doesn't really matter what it's made, water will ruin it if it gets in.
