Thanks... I'm especially glad I was able to find it locally. Now I just need to grab some plans ASAP.

I'm willing to bet that you're the first person to buy wood before plans? Haha. Get that ordered and get building!

Just ran across this marine plywood source. I believe they are located in southern Michigan. Prices seems great - and the inventory is very big.

Unfortunately, I couldn't get a truck to use this weekend, and the guy who runs the marina where I was going to buy the wood is going to Florida until March, so I'll have to wait until he gets back to the wood. That's ok though, since I probably wouldn't be getting too much done without the plans and in the freezing temps we've been having.
