Thanks John.
My local Home Depot doesn’t seem to have cdx. However, last week I found that my local Lowes has “3/4” Marine plywood”. While I can’t find a 2’ x 4’ piece anywhere, I will most likely buy the marine 4’ x 8’. Still debating on glasssing it but either way it has to be painted and I will buy bilge paint for that.
I am waiting to remove the plate before pulling the trigger on the full plywood sheet.
I looked at the suggestions above and decided to stick with the 3/4” because when I enter my bilge, I need to stand on these plates as I arrange my feet. I have to crawl in on my belly and slide my feet between the mufflers and stringers. These plates support my body weight.
