[QUOTE="surfman, post: 458031, member: 7404"] By the way CCA treated plywood has been used by pontoon manufacturers for years, maybe still do. Again they usually put down an insulator (tape) to separate the wood from the aluminum. Sylvan makes pontoons too so I am assuming they used the same wood for my boat, it looks like it. Not sure what they use today. https://marine-plywood.us/douglas%20fir.htm#BC_Pressure And as far sealing it with epoxy, it works incredibly well, the copper is sealed into the wood and will not affect the aluminum, at least it has been very successful for me in all my projects. No issues at all. [/QUOTE]
