just a thought. have John Owens in TX make them for you. may be cheaper because of shipping and the 'must by one 4x8 sheet limitation'.

if John can't assist i have 9mm Meranti hydrocore Marine (BS 1088). actually just got in a pallet of 10 sheets for building more S15s and S17s. could cut you the hatchboards and ship them to you. or i could 'rough cut' them so they could be shipped non-freight (ie, no semi-truck) and you could finish cut.
i get my plywood from World Panel Products in Riviera Beach, FL.

Can any of you folks in Minnesota recommend a supplier of marine plywood? I need to make new hatch boards for my M-17, and I'm having trouble finding suitable material. Based on the research I've done so far, plus my one shot at this several years ago, I think I want 9mm Aqua-tek Meranti. I've found one supplier in St. Bonifacious, but I have to buy a 4 x 8 sheet, which is double what I need. I haven't yet found anybody who can use the other half.
