[QUOTE="Brine, post: 286310, member: 1053"] I used ACM panel, but you would have to make sure it's framed correctly to give the rigidity you need, which means what weight you save in decking might be added in framing. I can't imagine anything would shave more than 50lbs off of 1/2 plywood if you're talking about only replacing the deck on a 14ftr and still maintain the integrity of walking around on it. If you go back with ply, skip the pressure treated and buy unfinished exterior grade and seal it yourself. Besides avoiding any possible corrosion, you'll probably save on weight too. [/QUOTE]
