No, we are not saying it's OK, but it might be the best you can get today. APBA Marine plywood was the best, but I haven't seen it in decades. Water proof glued multi-lamanate plywood without voids was what Carl Moeslay used in the 60's and it's still holding up pretty well. Give the composites 50 years and lets see how they are doing. Back in the '60's when "Made in America" was not driven by Wall Street investor ROI we made stuff that lasted a lifetime. Detroit and Peoria Iron still rules! Would you rather have a Preius or an Olds 442, a Doosan or a Caterpillar, a Bayliner or a SeaCraft?
