how important are fully taped seams? are they recommended, or are you SOL with critically?

Critically means they are only taped where wetness will most likely contact. Fully taped seams is just that, taped every where.
If you are in a very wet climate, or are spending tons of time out there, then its worth it for Fully Taped Seams.
Other wise, critically will work just fine in overall conditions.
