After waiting for cedar wood to arrive, and being disapointed when it didn't, I decided to go with locally available spruce. It will add a few (kilo)grams to the final weight, but, it is much cheaper (1/3rd of the price of cedar) and readily available, plus the boat shall be a little stronger. The lenght of the boards is 4m, and they are 4cm thick, so not ideal, but that is what I will have to work with. But other than the dimensions, I am really happy with the wood, very uniform in texture and apperance.
