Product Details

King Starboard is the original marine-grade polymer and the industry standard. It is the product of a proprietary process called K-Stran, the most advanced manufacturing process available for producing consistently flat continuous sheets. King StarBoard is easy to work with using standard woodworking tools, and design changes are a snap.

In addition, the installed cost of King StarBoard is less than teak, other common marine woods, and fiberglass. Plus, our large sheet sizes maximize your yield. Boat buyers appreciate King StarBoard's low-maintenance finish. Repair and refinishing due to weathering and decay are eliminated, and cleaning is easy.

Great product

I used the sheet material to make a cover over the outboard motor gas tank in the back of my sailboat which otherwise is totally exposed. Material is easy to cut, drill and generally work with and should last forever.

King Starboard

14 years ago
Can cut and trim like wood maybe easier. I used a knife to clean the edges. This worked better than sanding. First time I used this material. I see many uses for this stuff. Now I'm planning more projects in my head. Rebuilt the dashboard in my boat that someone butchered the cutouts on and looked messy. Now it looks new again.

Great stuff!

15 years ago
I love using this stuff, it works very much like wood, and it won't rot. [...] and it would be great if it was adhesive friendly, but these are small quibbles. I used it to overlay some interior paneling that had a lot of holes from old switches, etc, and it looks terrific.
