Finding gunwales

[Rick Stevens]

I need to replace the outwales on a 1945 17' OT. I have recently moved to Grass Valley California and don't know where I can locate the needed materials. All suggestions are appreciated.

i would think the locals would know of mills in the area. or the local lumber co. would know . try the internet for saw mills in calif. see if there is a school that teaches wood shop. there has to be sources around you.

They have a lot of resources listed, though finding one near you may be challenging.

Try Woodfinder:

Search by zip code in US, by province in Canada, by wood species, etc.
