-My take on this is if they can't tell you it is waterproof glue give
it a pass. Other than visuals, the absence of voids and use of
waterproof glues are absolute necessities.

The local Home Depot has a bunch of ply back inits trim and molding
section called "Sandply." It comes in 1/4, 1/2 and 3/4 thicknesses, is
reasonably prices, and looks very high quality -- smooth finish and no
gaps visible in the layers. Is this the stuff that Reuel Parker
recommended in his New Cold Molded Boatbuilding? Does anyone know
anything about this and whether it's suitable for boats?
