Location: Minnesota | In my excessive research for proper type of plywood to use in boat renovation... I have come across plenty of resounding NO for using green treated when using it in an aluminum boat... Reason for this is that the specific chemicals used to treat the wood is corrosive to Aluminum...
Best advice I have gotten repeatedly... You want to do it yourself, do it the right the first time!!!
What I would do is to weld together an aluminum frame made out of angled aluminum with proper support underneath, then get 1/2" plywood, cut it to size and seal it with polyester/epoxy resin then fiberglass it for extra strength... You can then wrap it in carpet... That way it'll last for a very long time, be strong, and easily removed when needed... |
