Mike:

Not sure I would use 1/2" T&H vs. 3/4" because it is available locally. Your Micron 66 wasn't available locally and look at your level of effort to get 'a one timer' versus your cabin sole for as long as you own and enjoy Persistence.

Bite the bullet and order the 3/4" T&H and do it right.

PS: I was at the boat yesterday....my first Spring project will be to go back this week with my axe and shovel to remove the 'glacier' where I place my step ladder to board. Don't think I am going 'splash' just yet.

We are looking to replace the cabin sole in our Frers 33 this season.  It is 
comprised of horizontal floors and covered by 3/4 inch teak and holly.  This is 
very likely the same as many C&Cs.

To date I can source 1/2 inch Teak and Holly locally but there is no stock and 
no known reorder date for 3/4 inch.  The two sources in Halifax are East Coast 
Specialty Hardwood who have 1/4 and 1/2 inch in stock and are out of stock on 
3/4 and Halifax Specialty Hardwoods who only stock 1/4 and 1/2 inch.

This leaves me to try one of three options:

1- Source out of town 3/4 T&H and pay for the shipping of a 78 lb piece of 4x8 
plywood.

2- Use 1/2 inch in place of 3/4

3- Laminate 1/4 inch on top of 1/2 inch marine plywood.

And the always available 4th option.  Procrastinate and do this next year

Does anyone have any thoughts on this or know of other suppliers near Halifax?
