Re: Marine ply info.

Now that we know everything about the 2 types. A quality Marine Lumber yard was telling me he is being killed on the price of Chinese " marine plywood " by competitors. Turns out China sets dog poo as their marine plywood standards in a production run. Americans buy anything cheaper. He said if this garbage keeps up , he will buy China's garbage and make a bundle also. Some of the Chinese woods are as soft as American shipping cardboard. You want everything cheap, China can do.

Just like their garbage tools and other junk cyclops2 - it may looks the same but looks are very deceiving. You get what you pay for.
