Here's the stack that I picked up from an excellent lumber yard in Pontiac, Michigan. 3 pieces of 5 ply 1/2" marine grade ($33/each) and 1 piece of 3/4" 7 ply marine grade ($43). This is beautiful wood, if I didn't have a boat I'd use it for furniture. I used the forward portion of the old stinger as a template to ensure I had the correct profile.
I'd like to thank my dad for helping me with this portion of the project.
