: Mark: How do you think this stuff would be for SOF gunwhales and stringers?

: R
I think the pine would be fine, although heavier than white pine, it seemed very uniform. I have had many people complain about how hard it is to find long lengths of clear pine, and if I could't find eastern white I would use this stuff. Another nice thing is that it is farmed.
