I’ve used fiber cement board for various outdoor fittings. It’s quite durable, resistant to rot, and holds up well. Definitely recommend for exterior projects.

It’s important to note that although alternatives like 3M Reinforced Polyurethane Foam Board are excellent, they do require different handling and techniques compared to traditional marine plywood. Adaptation is key.

Are they sustainably sourced? The marine ecosystem is delicate, and our choices should reflect a commitment to preserving it.
