On my Elgin Aluminum boat, I used a chunk of Douglas Fir 2X8(or 10?) on the outside. The 2" side was about 1/8" bigger than the roll of aluminum on the top. On the inside, I used a piece of 3/8" Okume. I work in a boat shop that has decent sized scraps of the BS1088 stuff. Both pieces were finished in polyurethane before installation.
