Nick said it was stained, I believe. If you look at the color images, you can see that the wood is darker and redder than any cedar would be:

I could be wrong. I might have been thinking of his Petrel prototype: http://www.guillemot-kayaks.com/guillemot/petrel_launching_the_prototype

Nick, if you see this: how do you keep the stripes undyed?
