I've had the wide Modwood around the pool for many years and I'm very happy with it. Almost zero maintenance in a fully exposed position.
After some testing, I didn't really like the way the screw "fought" the board, so I decided to predrill (with countersink) the board and about 1cm into the joist, then re-drill only the board slightly larger than the screw shaft to allow for some extra movement at all joists. These boards expand and contract in all directions and I thought best to allow for that wherever possible. Took longer but it has stood the test of time
