S&G: How much Okume??

Hey all,
I'm thinking about doing a quick build and liked the Night Heron S&G so I might give it a go. Question to you all, how much Okoume plywood is needed for this build? Also what is the standard thickness of Okoume? The company that I can get it from locally stocks it in 3mm and 6mm I saw someone else use 4mm and I'm wondering if 3 or 6 is ok?

Thanks,
Pat
