I have been using Mahogany deck boards bought at my local lumber yard. It is around 5/4 by 5 1/2 inches and fits in nicely. I have used I/2 inch cdx on the outside. I use polyurethane on the board and sealer and good oil base deck paint on the plywood. Looks good and has plenty of strength. Don’t be afraid, the cost for the mahogany is very reasonable. And the job looks good for years. Just my .02 worth.
