note Building a raft floor for the cockpit area--what wood to use? New

I was told to use a 3/4' marine grade CDX plywood to build a cockpit floor for my raft and for a top for the dropbag. I was going to sand or have routered all the edges to make them smooth and then finish with a bunch of varnish--maybe add some sand or other material for the floor so as to make it a bit less slick.

Is this is the correct wood to use? I saw on the internet under a few discussions that it was a cheap wood.
What have others out there used? Can you tell me how you did what you did for your raft floor? Pics would be greatly appreciated. reshaft99@aol.com
