Cedar, Northern White


Softwood 21 lbs. per cubic foot, 1.75 lbs. per board foot
Very similar to Atlantic white cedar, but because of small trees, its use is limited to small boat construction only, especially conventional planking. It is grown mostly in the Northeastern United States, and has little use in plywood boat building.
