The big issue with plywood coring is that it can wick water long distances from where it enters the core. End grain balsa coring does not have that capability.

Rob Massa, thanks very much for your response.  From my research, I believe the 
Morgan 382 is plywood.  I assume that the properties of plywood would be 
similar to balsa, but I am not sure.  Since I don't own the boat yet, I can't 
go digging around in her deck to see if it's rotted.

I'm still waiting on my survey (the surveyor will give me the moisture 
readings), so I will likely have to make a decision based on those.
