Default replace floor with 5/8 or 3/4

I was going to replace my boat floor with 3/4 marine ply but am concidering using 5/8 marine ply to help keep the weight down. The price difference is not the issue less than $100 differance it looks like 5/8 wood core was origonally used.Has anyone on here replaced their deck with 5/8 I dont want to regret later.
Looking for opinions????

I don't think resin will stick to pressure treated ply, use regular.
