For wood, the best place I have found is Boulter Plywood. Shipping prices are incredibly low.
I bought all my lumber and plywood here for the latest dinghy I am building.

Before I found Boulter Plywood, I purchased teak and Holly from Homestead to redo the cabin sole in our CAL. Very good people to work with, but shipping cost was much, much higher.

If you are doing any NMEA 2000 stuff, I have found good prices on Amazon. The 'Lowrance NMEA 2000 starter kit' is plug compatible with Garmin cables, so you can use this kit for the backbone and spur runs. I also took the backbone cable from this kit and spliced the end of the Raymarine Seatalk backbone cable onto one end when I was installing the EV-100 very far from the other equipment. Needed a long run of backbone cable and Seatalk cables are expensive. Seatalk-ng is proprietary, so doesn't mate with other cables unless you purchase adapters, or make your own by splicing the wires.
