I used plywood for new floorboards for my sailboat and have the shop and skills to do either.
Q1? Will using synthetic be negative on resale? i.e. be viewed as not as desirable?

Q2? Any other advantages or disadvantages? The purchase price is running about equal.

Thanks. Paul
Either would be a big improvement over carpet. I'd probably give the nod to teak and holly over syn-teak, but I doubt there is a big negative to going with the teak. Do your research, not all are created equal.
