[QUOTE="LonLB, post: 236458, member: 4391"] 3/4" is thick enough that it requires much less framing/bracing than 1/2". You end up lighter in the end I built my trolling motor tray out of 1/2". That was a mistake. By the time I had it braced, I could have just gone with 3/4" and saved some weight. Marine ply is best. quality exterior ply is 2nd. Gander Mountain is pretty cheap on carpet. I prefer carpet, and don't care for the astro turf stuff. Too much work doing all the modifications to a boat to not finish it out nice IMO. [/QUOTE]
