2006 Hallmark Ute rotted wood repair
I'm going to start off my first post by saying I've been perusing this site for sometime, and have learned a lot...espcially lubing Happy Jacks. My wife and I have had this Hallmark Ute for a year....

Coosa Bluewater 26 Series 4x8 foot marine sheeting is appx $400 @ (but this is the very thick stuff: 1.5 inches).
Be aware also that Coosa composite panels have a specific/limited list of adhesives that can be used to bond this stuff to itself or to/with other materials: http://www.coosacomposites.com/pdfs/coosa_adhesivelist.pdf
They recommend that you contact the adhesive manufacturer for specific application/adhesive advice(!).
Coosa makes a 26 Series in 0.5, 0.75 and 1.0 inches thick (I'd guestimate the 1 inch thick Coosa 26 to be in the $240~$290 range per 4x8 foot sheet). So, for roughly $1100, you could replace all 4 walls of your camper (and, cabover section, too) + your labor input. Retain and use your Ute's existing fiberglass to cap the Coosa. While you're at it, you might as well replace all your water filler parts, fridge vents, etc...all the old plastic exterior "stuff".
There are more makers of composite board to look at:
1)Penske Board (check out ther pricing, too);
2)Spaceage Synthetics (looks VERY similar to Coosa).
Try "Merritt Marine Supply" wholesaler for Coosa (they also sell Nida-Core 3M panels). Shipping may be costly, so investigate this closely.
