Hi gang,

I'm about to start some deck repairs on Fair Wind.

I've read This old boat, Jim's article in the Main Sheet and talked to 
several other people such as George and Harry who have done this type of 
repair.

Jim's article mentioned a core material called 'devincell'  ( i think 
that's how it was spelled), George and the Alberg30 website recommend 
Klegecell and I've heard other people say to use balsa.

I talked to the company that was mentioned on the website, they sell both 
Klegecell and balsa...when I asked their core 'expert', after he ran 
through the way to use either Klegecell or balsa, what he would use....he 
said he'd use marine plywood...

I'd like to know what are the advantages/disadvantages of 
devincell/klegecell (I imagine they're similar), balsa and plywood???
