Thanks for the response Rob.  Assuming lighter high quality ply epoxied would be more expensive but very little glass is required and foam is pricey, so would there be that much difference???  

Is the Pacific Marine product (Australian) toxic? - I am using it and I think not, and is very simple to apply with a roller, and no mess that you could complain about.  I am borrowing someone's Festool sanding etc. equipment with dust extractor, and there is absolutely no dust whatsoever.

Anyway, with all the discussion about foams over the last few months, the point I was raising is that it seems that there is still some uncertainty in that direction, whereas marine ply, properly maintained, is totally proven.  But if it would kill off the speed of the boat, one would be best to avoid it..

What thickness ply would be recommended for your designs?
