I'm going to be extending the back deck of my boat a couple feet and am trying to figure out what kind of wood I should be using. I assume marine grade plywood is ideal but it is expensive for a sheet and I'm reading that it doesn't come treated? So I'd have to seal it?

Can you use regular pressure treated wood from menards instead? I've read that the chemicals that they use can react with aluminum, looking for confirmation on that. It will be resting on an aluminum brace, can I wrap it in boat carpet so they will not be in direct contact?
