There is Clear cedar around but becomming very pricey. I used to know a guy on Jersey that milled it and had good pricing for it but he since passed away. The Barnegat is a very stable craft and and fun build but very difficult to use plywood for the bottom planking in the build.thanks i have the perrinie plans for the barnegat sneak box from Mistic sea port ,been wanting to build it like the original box. Good clear cedar is getting hard to come by!
