Has anyone had any experience using IPE on their boat?

I've used it to make a base for my swivel cam cleat for the main sheet. I also made a large deck and a picnic table out of it. I considered it for floorboards but haven't pursued that.
It's extremely heavy, kind of brittle, and extremely hard on tools. It's held up really well for my deck and table, though.
