    Default Where can I get Gaboon Ply in Sydney?

    Hi Michael,

    My local ply supplier (Penrith NSW) tells me that 6mm Gaboon Ply is no longer available, they have a Mahogany Marine ply in 6mm that weights 11 to 12kg per sheet.

    How does that compare to Gaboon? how much would it add to the weight of a punt?

    Is it possible to still get Gaboon 6mm anywhere?

    I am planning on doing a punt to test my skills and then tackle something bigger - love the look of that 'Venezia'

    Regards

    Brendan

    This recent thread had some advice about ply in Sydney too. I recall there seemed to be half a dozen suppliers around Brookvale (or whatever the suburb is called where Hardware and General are and the Manly Sea Eagles across the road). I'm not sure of their stocks though.
