    The planks are ply. The rest (the varnished bits) is celery top pine.

    Great work Mike!! and I wouldn’t worry about that timeframe - as long as you’re happy with the result that’s all that matters. She looks a picture and if you’re excited every time she hits the water then the work has all been worthwhile. I’m jealous as ever as I’ve been going on my Tom Cat since 2008 (with one year away) and still have much to do. Enjoy the fruits of you labour!
