Hey Bob
You are right about Watsonville. And last time I was there, they were short on their Marine plywood as they had just had a sale.
Don't even consider the boat shop in Chowchilla. They sold me the first two sheets I used on a canoe and it was $10.00 higher than from MacBeath in Berkeley. That's how I came to searching all over central Calif. and ended up at Jackel Enterprises in Watsonville. It's been 4 months since I was there also, so they may have more material now.
Mostly they have all the softwoods and a pretty impressive supply of hardwoods and exotics.
Good luck in your search down there...
