Thanks. It's mostly WRC; the hull is pretty blond stuff, as I saved the darkest bits to get more contrast on the deck. The racing stripe is yellow cedar with black walnut trim. Making those puppies is adding a lot of hours, but so far the results are OK, and I am staying true to the favourite design I sketched out. I sometimes wish I had put the hull stripe just one notch closer to the sheer, but there's no backing out now...
