Need a source for Oak Ribs

Hi All- I have started the West Greenland boat fromn a video by Bob Boucher. I am looking for a source of fresh-cut white or red oak; precut into the sizes specified in the plans. I don't have easy access to a saw to cut the stock myself. Does anyone know of a source of precut rib stock? I have searched on the net, but didn't come up with anything. Thanks in advance for your help. Jack Gilman
