[QUOTE="Popeye, post: 26025, member: 148"] I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say I think for most amatuer boat builders/modifiers like most of us are, plywood would be the material of choice. It is cheaper to buy than plate aluminum and easier to work with. My Father-in-Law just replaced the plywood center console and decking in his boat last year. It was 8 years old. If he gets another 8 years out of the next one he will have still have paid less than half what he would have if he used aluminum. Besides, after 8 years it's time for new carpet anyhow. [/QUOTE]
