I am building a Nomad 17 and need wood for the inner and outer stems. I live in an area where it is impossible to find any type of boatbuilding lumber that is worth a crap. Can anyone send me some stock to make the inner and outer stems for my canoe? I plan on making the stems from 1/4" thick laminations. Any wood that you guys with experience think would be good is fine with me. I was thinking ash or something for the outside and I'm not sure what should be used for the inside. I will pay whatever you think is fair, plus shipping. Any help you folks can give me would be greatly appreciated.
