Thread subject: Whaler Central - Boston Whaler Boat Information and Photos :: Ready to start building seats and console. Need advice

I have a 15' super sport and spent most of the summer patching and repairing the exterior of my hull. Everything went very well but was exhausting. The boat is flipped and back on the trailer tucked away in a garage for the winter. I'm now starting to turn my attention to the interior which includes dremeling the spidercracks and refairing the entire inside. The fun part is going to be rebuilding the seats and console. I really enjoy woodworking so I've been looking forward to this part of the project. My questions are:

1. Are there general plans for the interior that I can download
2. When it comes to materials, someone told me they used starboard instead of mahogany. How well does that hold up and will it need reinforcements due to material strength issues?

Thanks,
Ken
