In Response To: Skin-on-Frame: kayak proportions (Gero Verheyen)

One thing I've noticed is that I've read about a couple of builds where people built SoF boats according to Chris Cunningham's book using western red cedar - a wood which he advises against using, and I've also read on a couple of other threads that it's not as good a wood as yellow cedar.

Any thoughts on this from those of you who have built using WRC?
thanks.
