Strip: Accent wood source

I'm looking for a good, creamy-white wood to use for accents and the bottom of the hull. I hear a lot about Northern White cedar and Alaskan Yellow cedar. Howevever, Northern isn't available in the Pacific Northwest, and Alaskan is very hard to come by. Any suggestions for different types of wood or suppliers in the Seattle area?
