If you are a young guy that plans to keep the boat use what your
conscience dictates ! I used 3/4 marine plywood when the NoBones was re-habed 30 years ago... was at the age of 34 at the time.. To this day there are NO signs of any bad wood. Reason lots of 5200 was used on every drilled hole. (except motor mount) Now at the age of 64 re-habing a 1975 Hewes with wood... Reason it only needs to last me maybe 10-15 years before to old to fish and move around.. Let the next guy worry about it !!!

I do appreciate the reply’s everyone ,before I bought the seacraft I had a 1988 236 mako that I restored to better than new . It had a little wood and a little composite I loved the boat but it was a strait inboard and didn’t work well in shallow water , so I sold it . I got probably a hundred calls on it and the first question I got was “does it have wood in it “ it drove me crazy cause I didn’t want to lie and say no but on the other hand I didn’t want to say yes and lose the sale .the guy that bought it looked pass the fact that it had little wood in it.i tend to go over board when restoring my boats , I’m the guy that has the hose ready when the fish hits the deck , lol, I’m 39 years old and thinking this might be the last boat I restore , hahahaha just kidding , I’m thinking a 23 sc is next , I love the look of these hulls and the way they sit in the water .honestly I still can’t decide.
