Location: Sun Prairie, WI | When I did my transom last year I did a little research on what wood to use. Ended up using MDO plywood. It is used for signs. Has fewer voids than regular cdx but the best thing is it has a paper like finish on both sides so it nice and smooth and the fiberglass resin stuck to it very well. Its not as expensive as marine grade and not as cheap as cdx. I think I paid 50 bucks for a sheet of 3/4 Id look at this for the deck and seal all sides of it. the carpet will be nice and flat then also. Also I would use some sort of sealer where you screw through the wood. Just my $.02 |
