    This is a very old thread. Is there a reason to revive it? You can find a way to drown yourself in either hull material choice, just as easily as a successful, comfortable crossing. Simply put, hull material choices don't have a lot of bearing on passage making capabilities, assuming appropriate engineering is in place.
