A fellow boat builder and I have enough wood strips for at least 4 boats that we need to sell. We purchased the inventory of a company that was putting together sea kayaks kits in Omaha NE (they went out of business). We are just trying to get our money back on the purchase and to put the wood in hands of builders especially the builders here that have helped me during my kayak building - we are not in it for a profit.

The strips are 18' clear western red cedar 7/8" wide, 3/16" thick and and edges are bead and cove routed. We are selling the strips for $3.00 each; with 60-70 strips for build a kayak, for around $200 you can have clear, 18' strips all ready to begin striping. I have found it difficult to find good wood strips, especially in the midwest. These strip are top quality. They are located in Lincoln, NE and we have shipping crates for the wood. I'd rather not ship - cash and carry on the wood.

We also have several pairs of yakima foot pedals for $25 a pair plus shipping. Finally we have kayak seat backs: Immersion Research Reggie Backbands for $25 each plus shipping (see link below)
