That's awesome, Aaron. I had looked into using cypress for my boats last year but the shipping to NH would have been costly. I've heard from others it' makes really pretty boats. I'm using Northern White Cedar for most of the reasons you gave for using cypress. It's wonderful to work, lighter, and the best part: it's local.
