The centerboard on the Dyer Dhow awaiting restoration in my back yard is made 
from marine plywood.

I agree with Joel, starboard is too flexible and will, IMO, probably bend.

 

Why not use 1/4 or 1/8 FRP from McMaster-Carr?  You can buy it in sheets of 
2'x4' through 2'x8'

I have acquired a very tired Dyer Dow sailing dinghy.   Rebuilding the while 
thing. In replacing center board it seems 1/4"starboard would be fine for its 
1x3 dimensikns.   3/8 is too heavy .    

 

Any experience with this size of starboard in this application?

 

Thanks in advance.
