Skin-on-Frame: biulding kayak using composite decking

As I am just finishing up my SOF using real wood. I was thinking of the next one and how difficult it is to get good wood around here. So I'm wondering if anyone has used some of the composite decking type of products instead of real wood? I know that this takes alot of the romance out of the project compared to real wood and also realize this would create some issues especially when it comes to planing and routering.
