Thank you RobMann, the cap rails were stained heavily (several coats) with Minwax fruitwood stain and appeared as a good match on top of the black broadsides. You can reference the details in my build log “Yacht America”, post #19. The cabin trim rails I have to confess could have been done better with a mahogany colored stain instead of the fruitwood color. After I sealed the deck furniture with clear flat it made the color imbalance obvious but “close enough”.I live and learn from my mistakes. Nonetheless I’m very satisfied with my build overall.
