I’m getting ready to start building a small sailboat and I was planning to make the whole thing out of cedar and mahogany, but then I ran into this at the lumberyard. This is 80% clear Douglas Fir! Can you believe they were selling this as framing lumber? I paid $70 bucks for all of it. Looks like this boat is gonna be a little bit heavy but dang it’s gonna be strong.
