One friend cringed and said, "You could have at least used pressure treated plywood!" I'm not sure I could have. 1/4" ply would have been better, but I had the scraps of 3/8" on hand. I don't think the local yards carry 1/4" pressure treated ply. So I'll probably slather it with Boat Soup, which is a mix of linseed oil, turpentine, melted parafin wax, and pine tar.

As for the gaps, I recognize that they aren't perfect, but I want to get the other big stuff done before I fiddle with tiny things.
