: I built my first and only boat predominantly from redwood with
: cedar and pine accents. I've used it hard for several years and
: have experience no problems in the least. I used a polyurethane
: as the top coat to avoid any yellowing from varnish and it has
: remained as red as the day it was built. Vaclav has photos his
