i worked with alaskan yellow cedar (accent strip) against stained red cedar. the yellow cedar pretty much matched the cypress strip which was used for the bow and stern external stem pieces. the accent is a very light whitish yellow.

since i was running the accent strip the length of the boat...i did not want to gain weight by using a hardwood.
