I will be honest and tell you everything I learned came from this site. There is a wealth of information on this site just spend some time looking around. If I could not find what I was looking for I would just ask and get an answer. The help here is awesome. As for the plywood, I did not use "marine" grade but rather CDX. It has the same glue but will have some more voids then marine grade. You can get it from any good lumber supply house. The supplies for the boat....well I got very lucky. I will tell you this. If there is a builder anywhere around you it would be worth a trip and see if they can get the supplies for you. It save me hundreds by getting my supplies through the original builder. He is a very small outfit but really helped me out. He told me most boat builders will sell to the public. I had a lot of fun doing this project and my wife is a little nervous. There was a nice 20ft. CC that needed work....someone picked it up before I got to look at it..lol. Good luck with your project and you will have plenty of moral support here in this forum. I'm not done yet but I can finally see the finish line. I just hope it still runs!
