Re: Marine plywood / central Illiinois
Looks like they'd also be a good source of material if you were going
to make a fabric-over-framework canoe.

If one goes to the on-line catalog for

The ink stamp on a sheet of this plywood reads as follows:
"WISA-PLY OKOUME BS 1088 WBP 244*122*06 10/10/2003 MADE IN FRANCE"
In addition, there is a self-adhesive "sticker" that reads:
"LLOYD'S REGISTER TYPE APPROVAL, CERTIFICATE NO. 98/00148"
Wicks brought-in 5 sheets of this plywood for stock at my request;
today I bought all 5 sheets and committed to buying 5
more sheets. Wicks will be bringing-in some more on their
next regular aircraft-grade plywood order (I do not know when
that will be).
Wicks would keep a little bit of this stuff in stock if
there is a market for it, but does not want to get
saddled with product that there is no demand for.
If a few more people will buy this stuff, we here in the
mid-west hinterlands just might end-up with a supplyer
where we can buy marine-grade plywood "off the shelf."
