It is a good idea. It may outlast plywood. Can we get the right stuff to
glue the seams together?
PVC welding rods are not dependable for water tight seams.

I work in a shipyard where we do a lot of yacht work. We use a lot of sheet
PVC for structural applications such a decking and stringers whee they are
subject to weather exposure which has gotten me to wondering. I have
wanted
to build a small stitch & glue runabout. Has anyone either any experience
or
knowledge how sheet PVC would compare to plywood in a hull sheathing
application. I have looked at the PVC material specs for the various
thicknesses and they seem to compare fairly equally to their plywood
equal.
Any comments?
