Hi. I bought the Devlin Broadbill plans this morning. I would like to ask those who have built boats if I go with 3/8" ply on the bottom should I stay with 3/8" for the sides or can I use 1/4". Since I will be using this on the Mississippi River backwaters where debris can be a thing with old pipes and duck blind materials I'm thinking a skin of Kevlar over the fiberglass might save a hull. Is this suitable in the link below? I'm open to suggestions. I do have to watch the bank account though.
