It would depend on thickness. They build a MAX that is a 2X dimension, but with a 5 foot span... I would think a double layer of the PVC (since they will come at minimum 12 feet long) would do the trick.
Layering the cedar should do the same trick... but for the most part, I have never seen a span of over 2 foot used. Not sure where to get Western Red Cedar decking currently... but I would think someone would have it.
I think the plies would be stronger than a single stick.
But light weight, waterproof/resistant, and inexpensive isn't easy to find.
