Here is a link to high-density polyurethane foam core composite board, which is a lighter weight substitute of marine grade plywood. Injected foam between two sheets of fiberglass. 4x8 sheet of 3/4" weighs 49# compared to 65# plywood. Expensive at $180 a sheet, but impervious to gas, oil, water and very strong, light weight, and rigid. Just needs to be painted to protect from UV light. Cuts with standard wood blades. Located in Grand Prairie, TX. (Between Dallas and Fort Worth)
They also do really thick custom transom pieces as well.
