    This was a boat project my father, John Shumaker, and I were going to do together, but his deteriorating health prevented it from being built. He died almost 2 years ago, and I am finally willing to part with the materials.

    Meranti plywood 4' x 8' sheets, BS1088:
    23 sheets of 6 mm - 5-ply
    24 sheets of 9 mm - 7-ply
    22 sheets of 12 mm - 9-ply
    12 sheets of 4 mm - 3-ply

    Okoume plywood 4' x 8' sheets, BS1088:
    4 sheets of 3 mm - 3-ply
    7 sheets of 4 mm - 3-ply
    4 sheets of 6 mm - 5-ply

    About 360 board ft of clear Port Orford cedar
    About 60 board ft of clear purple heart
    2 large African or Honduras mahogany boards: 1.75" x 18.75" x 133" and 1.56" x 20.7" x 111"
    A 2'x8' sheet of 3" thick 5 pcf PVC structural foam
    A 2'x8' sheet of 1" thick 5 pcf PVC structural foam
    All wood properly stored out of weather.

    Selling for half of current market price: all of it for $5,000.
    You may buy all the lumber, and/or all the plywood, but I will not piece it out.

    22 sheets of 12 mm - 9-ply - $44 per sheet
    12 sheets of 4 mm - 3-ply - $17 per sheet
    2 large African or Honduras mahogany boards: 1.75" x 18.75" x 133" - $300 and 1.56" x 20.7" x 111" - $225

    Would you ship the PVC foam? Any idea of the brand?

    I don't know the brand. I suspect Airex, but I could find no record. It was purchased from Fiberglass Hawaii (Ventura location) about 12 - 15 years ago. It is still in it's original shipping packaging, so I could ship if you pay for shipping.

    I'd love to grab that foam from you but I think shipping to Georgia would be more than it would cost here
