What it can't do. You won't be using King Starboard to build boat hulls, because it's not a structural material. That means it needs to be supported by a load-bearing frame or substrate. You also won't be using King Starboard where temperatures are likely to exceed--or even get close to--180 degrees Fahrenheit, because it'll start to melt and you'll have all sorts of problems. And King Starboard expands and contracts with normal temperature variations, so you'll need to allow for that when you assemble various components. more

King Starboard is a marine-grade polymer, which means it's a high-tech plastic that will stand up to salt water and sun a lot better than most types of wood--without a lick of maintenance, and often at lower cost. This tough marine polymer won't rot or absorb water, so it's a great solution for swim platforms, hand rails, steps, dinghy chocks, fish-cleaning tables and other applications.

What it can do. You can work King Starboard with standard woodworking tools and assemble components with standard screws and fasteners. The stuff can be notched and bent around curves, and joints can be joined with specialized plastic welding equipment (but should still be mechanically fastened). I've used King Starboard to make instrument enclosures, shelves, cabinets and the like for customers who needed them to fit in weird places full of odd angles and curves--and I'm sold on this material as a faster, longer lasting, economical alternative to marine wood products in many situations. King Starboard AS (Anti-Skid). In addition to all the qualities I've listed above, King Starboard AS (Anti-Skid) offers an excellent skid-resistant solution for ladder treads, our custom shower and cockpit grates, swim platforms and any deck location where non-skid footing is a critical concern. Starboard AS has a grippy dot pattern on one side that's molded--not laminated--right into the polymer sheet, and will last the lifetime of your boat.

Fine for drawers and door panels (we use 1/2" panels in our boat doors for example, set inside 3/4" frames). If you lay a piece of 1/2" Starboard over a solid substrate such as marine plywood, it'll also serve well as a rough-and-ready fish-cleaning station. And using Starboard AS (Anti-Skid), this is fine for fully supported step and stair pads. [links]

The colors of Marine Board are integrated with the polymer, retaining color vibrancy and saving you time and money from needing to repaint. Marine Board is easily cut, routed, shaped and drilled using common standard woodworking and shop tools.

Marine Board versus King StarBoard® A/S
With all the same benefits at Marine Board and King StarBoard®, StarBoard® A/S grade applies an anti-slip texture, perfect for high traffic walkways and other areas where a texture is desired. [links]

Manufactured for marine use, Marine Board HDPE is a superior alternative to wood at a very economical price. While resistant to salt water, a wide range of chemicals and UV exposure, unlike other alternatives, Marine Board doesn't splinter, crack, delaminate, rot, swell or absorb water. Even under heavy foot traffic on yacht decks, it remains virtually maintenance free.

King Starboard AS (Anti-Skid) provides the same high quality performance as starboard with a non skid texture. Starboard AS is great for deck hatches, steps, or any other location where traction is critical! [links]

[simplesharp]

There are two anti skid patterns (dot and diamond). Only anti skid dot is available for unassisted online checkout. Customers interest in the diamond pattern are encouraged to call for availability and pricing. Note the diamond pattern has grain direction and you will need to indicate which direction the diamond needs to run. This grain orientation can effect sheet layout, yield and price.

King StarBoard® AS is an anti-skid, marine-grade, high-density polyethylene sheet. It is the product of a proprietary process called K-Stran™, the most advanced manufacturing process for superior flatness and consistency. King StarBoard® AS has a dot or diamond pattern on one side of the sheet and a matte finish on the other side. The special, high-friction anti-skid surface helps prevent slipping and promotes drainage. It is environmentally stabilized to withstand the harshest outdoor conditions. King StarBoard® AS will not rust, delaminate or rot when exposed to UV, humidity or water. It is ideal for a variety of high-traffic marine applications from decking and swim platforms to ladder steps where traction is critical. For maximum versatility, standard colors are made to coordinate with the original King StarBoard®. The polymer sheet never needs painting or refinishing, works like wood, and is easy to fabricate with common woodworking tools and techniques.
