Replacing Wood Deck
So I am assuming that you are saying that Marine grade plywood is the way to
go... What about the rest of the job? As far as finishing the deck?
And I agree if it is an issue where I would be replacing the deck again in 2
years then I will spend the extra ~$200 and get marine grade. So far that
hasn't been proven to me, given that I would encapsulate the entire deck
(top, bottom and sides) both woods should have the same strength and last
about the same... Right? I know marine grade lays their layers at a 45 deg
angle where as A/B lays at 90 degrees, but the glues are both the same and
the voids are minimial in either.
I'm open, if you think I am missing something please provide some details.
Thanks!
Mark.

Exactly, and compared to the value of your time and effort, the very
best (and correct) materials don't cost that much more. Why turn your
project into a durability experiment?
