PT board and aluminum do NOT go together. It is a HUGE no no to put pressure treated boards around aluminum due to the chemicals used to pressure treat boards.

If your going to ck it from time to time just use regular 2x4. Other wise I would use some of that plastic board they sell, will last forever!

Please make sure that the strips are not rubber. Rubber will corrode the Aluminum.
http://marinesurvey.com/yacht/fueltank.htm Suggestion is to glue some plastic strips where the wood will make contact with the tank. Even having the wood contact the tank will cause it to corrode.

Personally for the minimal effort involved... Just glass regular wood to the bottom of the hatch.... $50 and 2-3 hours and you can look at it again in 15 years.
