This answered a lot of my questions, thanks guys! Im using Coosa board for for my transom floor and stringer in my boat rebuild, 1978 Checkmate Vmate. Love the product
Hi Guys, Can I use this for the underside of my engine room deck hatches, is it fire resistant ?? I have plywood there now encased in fiberglass with a sound proofing aluminum like material over the glass. THANK YOU.
Hey Robert, Coosa is generally used for engine room deck hatches! It is a substrate, so the Coosa would need to have the same treatment of being glassed in with sound proofing aluminum like material over the glass to make sure it is fire resistant. I have attached a link below showing the safety data sheet in regards to Coosa - www.coosacomposites.com/images/COOSA_SDS_07.31.15A.pdf Please let us know if you have any other questions! :)
I need to build a "doggy" tray for our boat... do I need to glass Coosa board? Or can I use Coosa, and just resin coat it, and then maybe bilge paint it?
Hey there! I would recommend reaching out to our customer service team at 866-633-7961 regarding the details of your project to see if that is the right material for your application :)
Hey David, I would give our customer service team a call at 866-633-7961 to chat with them about the logistics of your project to see if this material is the best for your application :)
Coosa is a great decking and transom alternative from plywood as it is lighter yet stronger, but one of the biggest takeaways is that will it is rot, mold, mildew, and algae resistant, that way it will not have to be replaced because of those issues :) If you have any other questions, please don't hesitate to give us a call at 866-633-7961
Joni, I can't think of any substrate used in boat building that *doesn't* require some form of top coating/sealant. Coosa is designed to be a direct replacement for marine-grade plywood, without any of its cons (water absorption/weight gain, rot, warping, etc.) ... but plywood would require a top coat as well, so...
Do you make custom sized coosa? Could someone send you dimensions for a transom or stringers? For the consumer this seems ideal and would reduce the amount of waste. If you've watched the Tolman Alaskan Skiff build series, they sell kits of marine plywood CNC'd stitch and glue construction kits that make a great boat. I think it would be an incredible youtube video series for you to build a stitch and glue Tolman Alaskan Skiff using nothing but precisely sized coosa! If you'd like to sponsor my build I'll build the most indestructible fishing boat out of nothing but coosa :) #bestboatever #iloveBoatOutfitters
Hey there Sandy, we certainly do sell custom sized coosa! You can select the thickness you want as well as the size on our website, or you could always call in for a custom quote at (866)-633-7961 :)

😅😅 I met Andrew in person. Great guy 1:10 helpful very concerned of my project. Can’t wait to meet them again.
$478 for 1/2" x 48" x 96".
Do I at least get dinner first ?
Very helpful. Thanks
I wonder how this would work on my old fiberglass rv floor replacement 🤔
What can I use to anchor things like chairs onto the deck? Things I don't have access to the underside after installation?
what is the delfection on the .5" coosa board?
Can I put a new floor in my blowup transom boat on top of the PVC with this product.
Would this work for pontoon decking I only have 3/4 inch marine plywood could I go with half inch and encalapse it
hmmmmmmmm i wonder if this could be used for hulls and the stringers etc ... lol
“For those of you that don’t mind replacing your transom or decks regularly” (plywood) LOL Aka, disposable boat.

Whats the difference between Thermo-Lite and Coosa board ? I have been leaning towards thermo-lite....
Hey there, we are actually unsure of the difference between the two, sorry about that!
Do you need to cover the coosa with fiberglass before putting the actual surface decking or marine vinyl on?
Hey there Eric, it depends on the application. Please give us a call at 866-633-7961 so we can better discuss this with you :)
