hypalon? pvc? polyurethane? which is best?

Is there a "best" tube fabric, or do hypalon, pvc, and polyurethane each have their own advantages and it comes down to "six of one, half dozen of the other"? I am not concerned about weight and will be running in salt and fresh water. The raft will NOT be moored over a week or two at a time; then it will be washed and stored on land. Opinions, please. Thanks again. Some of you folks have been of great help! John
