Default Is it worth it?

McClosky's.

Will the 3/4" standard grade AB plywood last? *Or should I go to marine
grade? *I even thought of playing with it, and buying cedar and going for
the On Golden Pond look, which I must admit is tempting, as cedar is not
expensive, looks great and weathers better than plywood.

Suggestions? ...........

No, the glues used are not water friendly.
