Default Pressure treated plywood

You can buy CCA treated, kiln dried, marine plywood. I'm not a fan because
kiln-dried means the wood is more brittle. Wrong answer, even if it is
glassed on both sides and "just a core". I'm afraid that more brittle might
equate to "bigger hole" if the boat strikes something...

Example of CCA treated marine plywood:

The outfit above guarantees the wood won't warp or rot. We'll see...

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
