Wood daggerboard

I'd like to build a new laminated dagger board of solid wood rather than plywood. What species of wood is recommended?

There have been quite a few descriptions of similar projects on the Wooden Boat forum (http://forum.woodenboat.com) . I remember a thread about a young man who cloned a Mirror and who has made paddles etc with solid wood lamintations. Perhaps you'll find help there.
The Wooden Boat forum is definitely the place to find hints and info on woodworking projects to do with boats.
