Default Pressure treated plywood

Has anyone had any experience using pressure treated plywood for a marine
application. I'm putting a floor in an aluminium fishing boat (that will
be covered with vinyl) and I wondered if this product would do the job.

Thanks in advance

IME, treated plywood is pretty low grade stuff with lots of voids. It is
fine for damp environs where rot might take hold. What it is not good for
is wet applications... the glue fails like with any unpainted plywood and
one of the drawbacks of treated wood is difficulty in getting a finish to
take.

Again, my experience. YMMV
