[QUOTE="thill, post: 493198, member: 4972"] Very interesting experiment. Sounds successful. In my experience, the failure in the foam core is from delamination over time. Pink board is pretty durable, so very interested to see how well this holds up. I'm about to re-deck two boats, and was planning to use 1/2" ply on the floor, ($31/sheet) as originally used with original supports. For the front and rear decks, I typically use 5/8" plywood ($46/sheet) with good success. I have never weighed the wood, but I will be watching your experiment with great interest. I bought 3/4" Coosa decking for $179/sheet a couple of years ago. Looks like it's doubled in price. I've held off on the work for awhile, hoping prices will come back to earth. Thanks for sharing.
