I was wondering about that myself.  I've also built a CLC boat and am 
currently building a cedar strip kayak (Jay Babina's Outer Island).  Since 
I'm milling my own strips I suppose I could provide receipts from the 
lumber store for the western red cedar I've bought, more receipts from the 
place where I buy my fiberglass cloth and resin, etc.
