Material: Art Questions?

Hi Folks: This is my first posting on the board. I greatly enjoy building kayaks and have a couple of questions for anyone who would care to respond. 1. On my current project, I would like to deviate from the red cedar and build as white a color deck as possible. Any suggestions for wood (pine for example)and epoxy?
2. Why should I use MAS epoxy and not System III?
3. Has anyone tried installing one of those new Wilderness Systems Phase 3 seats?
Good Luck to You All!
Mike
