It's similar (in application, though not chemistry) to Airex and Divinycell.
Great stuff, but expensive (about twice okume plywood in cost). You might
have to build a temporary form when stitch-and-glueing it into shape, since
it's pretty flexible before it gets laminated. I believe this place sells
it in small quantities: http://www.fiber-tek.com/solvents_foams.htm

Pardon the "non-skin" topic, but you guys are my expert resource on
everything...
I just heard from a friend of mine about some product called "Core Cell".
Apparently it's a water-proof, rot-proof laminate of some kind that you
can use in place of plywood. His gripe was that it could only be purchased
in huge quantities.
Here's some info:

Anybody know what this stuff is and if some distributor sells small
quantities? Seems like you could make a heckuva stitch-and-glue kayak if
the stuff were light enough and easy to cut.
