now that would be a very california look, a "woodie" nacra with decks made of 1/4 ply with a layer of glass cloth on each side and clear resin. you could glass the cloth on both sides and let it cure before mounting the panels. i imagine you would want to have the base with lots of resin, so you had a strong, waterproof layer, but the tops with just enough resin to soak into the cloth but still leave the weave raised for grip.
