Anybody ever use redwood to build a canoe or have thoughts on using it? I'm in CA where I see it in the lumber yards and am contemplating buying a bunch. From what I've read though it may not be the best. My father in law built 6 redwood strippers in the early 60's and had issues with the fiberglass coming off. Not sure if that was because glass was newer and resins were not as developed as now or if redwood has issues with bonding. I have read where some have suggested that the wood is the problem.
