I am restoring a 15 foot speed boat of maybe 50s vintage.
It has a ply deck that looks like a laid deck and it has rotted.
I am replacing the ply decls but am not sure how the markings were
done to imitate a laid deck.
The grooves seem to be about 2 mm deep and about 2 mm wide and are
black in color.
Can any one assist a novice on how to do a ply deck that looks like a
laid deck ?

Buy the special ply made like that.

Is that supposed to be helpful, or snobbish? It isn't very helpful. Where
would you get it? Instead of little snippish quips, a real answer with at
least one source would be a lot more helpful.
