Hey all, thanks for all your suggestions. I found these guys on amazon, and price seems ok for marine grade ply (includes shipping):

What is the going rate for that stuff?Will’s link to Kemah hardware is good also. They and Houston hardwoods both carry marine grade plywood.
Part of the problem is that I don't know where to look. I'm sure that it is here somewhere. There are lots of boat builders in the area. They have to get it from somewhere.And you couldn't find that deal for marine plywood available in Florida?
Wow, that's pricey! But it looks like the norm. I'm lucky to have a local lumber supply that stocks Marine fir plywood. Boat building has deep roots in our neighborhood which makes it worthwhile for them to stock it.Hey all, thanks for all your suggestions.

Ha! Thanks, Will. I consider myself a B wood worker. I have friends that put me to shame. But I am a good 'noodler', when it comes to stuff like this (that comes from a lifetime of home design/building). When you are doing the work, it's amazing how many ways you'll find to make it easier!O M G ! Tom.
You're a woodworking god.

Keep in mind, marine grade plywood is about the void free core and the waterproof glue. It will rot as quickly as any wood, solid or composite. The waterproof glue just keeps it from designating and the low void core makes joinery better. That's all.Water intrusion from the deck had rotted out the original plywood (which did not look like marine grade to me when I removed it)
