: many months ago there was a thread on the weight and other aspects of
: basswood. According to the latest CanoeCraft book basswood was once used
: in canoe building. Since I have access to a stand of basswood trees I'm
: curious if anyone has used basswood in a strip kayak and what does it look
: like? addison I just used it for accent strips. It is soft, works well, very white with very little visible grain and very light weight.
