The dagger board on the sunfish I just bought is looking a little bit old. Much of the polyurethane is warn off and the bare wood is exposed in places. My plan is to hand sand it a little, maybe use some marine filler in badly chipped areas and then use an outdoor polyurethane to finish and protect it. I am only looking to prolong the life of the Mahogany Dagger board. I am not trying to improve performance, do any racing and I don’t care about looks. I have a few questions for anyone who knows about this stuff:
1. Am I wasting my time? Should I just use it as a bare wood board and buy a new one in a few years?
2. Can I use “outdoor” polyurethane to refinish it or is there a marine grade I need to use?
3. Should I just glass the whole thing and paint it?
Thank you for any help, I would hate to mess it up.
