I was wondering abotu using salt-treated plywood on the Marquis deck.
I'm not a feared of paying for marine grade, but Jimmy the carpenter
told me that the newer salt treated woods are about as worthy as
marine grade at a fraction of the cost. So, what's the opinion?


I'm even wondering abotu using hybrid decking like you'd use on a
porch. synthetic mylar etc mixed with wood. The stuff is weather
resistant as all get out!

And slippery as hell. Are you going to carpet over it? Starboard isn't
cheap but it's another option if you are using carpet.

Lar, this stuff we used on the front porch has a simulated wood grain
in the product, it really does look like wood.

while wet and with bare feet you couldn't slip on it if you had to.

That's the newer stuff. The old Trex was smooth and slippery.
