    I am posting this just for general information to those considering using pressure treated plywood in boat building and using epoxy as an adhesive.
    The secret is to make sure the PT plywood is DRY. This is covered near the end of the article. The Glen-L people posted this on their forum in answering a question regarding the subject. Stan

    THIS INFO I'M TOLD IS OUT OF DATE AS CCA PRESERVATIVE IS BANNED. WILL RESEARCH AND POST CURRENT FINDINGS.
