The Ash gunnels have a lot of figure to them, pretty sweet actually. With black walnut noses, the fore and aft decks fit tight over the bulkheads and provide a great place to grab on. The seal coat of epoxy was just put on when these pictures were taken and I expect the wood to darken just a bit as it cures.
The ash wood was sources locally and was destined to become fence boards. With the emerald ash borer in the area a lot of this material will become available.
The next step is to sand down the fill coat of epoxy and get it ready for varnish... then set the seats.
