I plan on using ACX to build with.

I have a choice of SYP or Fir ply.  Which should I go with?

I already know the quality difference of not using okoume or merenti and am willing to live with it.  The boat will be dry sailed and stored under cover when not in use.

Go with the fir

Ditto on the fir use, after 5 years in my boat, it's as solid as day one.

I have built with both, the fir is stronger and if you cover it in the cloth and epoxy, no bother at all for maintenance.
