Marine plywood source

I was out yachting in my Nutshell pram this afternoon, when there was a
loud crunching noise followed by a loss of steering. Yup, snapped the
rudder clean in half.

Can anyone recommend a New England supplier of marine plywood, preferably
one that will sell fractional sheets? Googling has not been productive so
far.

Thanks,

Scott

You might also check with an outdoor sign company. You might be able to
get some HDO (High Density Overlay) slightly better than marine plywood.

can direct you to who can.

Very interesting, Glenn. How did you obtain the knowledge required to
build such a substantial craft?
