Location: Illinois

Jerry;
I believe there are other things important in marine grade plywood, in addition to whether there are voids or not . Baltic plywood has no voids, as do different grades of veneer plywood. The water proof glue is what is most important in marine grade plywood.If you only coated one side of regular plywood with resin, it would most certainly delaminate from moisture attacking the other side.For wood to be sealed in resin, it must be dipped, fully coated on all sides or glassed into the floor or sides to be encapsulated and protected from moisture.
Call a manager at a quality lumber yard and get their recomendations. Owl Lumber in Villa Pk, Illinois is staffed by very knowledgeable people.
