side panels

i am repalacing my side panels due to rot, every good wave this summer made more and more of it to fall off from behind. i am going to use pressure treated plywood, but should i use anything else to seal it up, or will it be fine just the way it is. :surf:

I always give the wood a few coats of marine/outdoor varnish just to help keep the moisture out, probably don't need to but I do it anyway.
 
I use exterior grade plywood and coat with resin once it's patterned, cut, and the edges rounded down(as well as hardware holes already drilled). Good Luck!
