Dan,
Can you describe penofin?  I have not heard of this product.  Who makes it?

My boat came with Cetol on the exterior. Didn't look too bad although 
had that somewhat plastic look in places. After stewing over what to do, 
I stripped the rails and put tung oil on one side, a marine penofin on 
the other. The wood looked much happier with the oil and the penofin 
held up much better over the winter (half the cost).
