Since fiberglass is stronger than wood, the hulls of the boats may be made thinner, and the area inside of the boat larger. ... This alone makes fiberglass ideal for the production line. Now, it is important to note that fiberglass will not necessarily be stronger than steel or aluminum when used for this purpose.

How Long Do Fiberglass Boats Typically last? Fiberglass boats can be sound and seaworthy for up to fifty years or more. Fiberglass is very durable, and with proper maintenance and care, fiberglass boats can last for many decades. Fiberglass itself will not break down but instead will break down due to outside factors

Fiberglass boats tend to weigh more, so they generally have better seakeeping abilities and more stability than aluminum boats. Their higher weight means fiberglass boats don't get easily buffeted by the wind, so they tend to drift slower and more predictably (a trait important to anglers, in particular).

A common fiberglass repair is replacing damaged core, often because of water absorption. In many of these repairs, the fiberglass “skins” are in great shape but need to be peeled off to replace the core. Bonding the original skin back onto the new core can save significant time and money
