King StarBoard® XL is a lighter, more economical version of the popular King StarBoard®. This 100% virgin polymer, marine-grade cellular material has an excellent surface finish that looks good enough to use in high-visibility applications where structural strength and a finished edge are not important. more
King StarBoard® XL is upgradable to King MicroShield® with an exclusive antimicrobial additive, the latest technology for protecting the product surface against stain and odor causing bacteria, algae and fungi.
King StarBoard® XL sheets are up to 30% lighter in weight than King StarBoard®, and are made with the same textured surface and colors for a perfect match. As with King StarBoard®, King StarBoard® XL is made with the exclusive K-Stran™ process for superior consistency and flatness, and has a thickness tolerance of plus or minus 5% (unlike ordinary polymer sheets that use 10% as an acceptable tolerance).

King StarBoard® ST XL is available in a lighter version as a custom product. King StarBoard® ST XL sheets are up to 30% lighter in weight than King StarBoard® ST and are made with the same textured surface and colors for a perfect match.
King StarBoard® ST is a unique and advanced, high-density polyethylene building sheet that lasts a lifetime. The polymer sheet is 25% stiffer than the original King StarBoard®. It is a product of a proprietary process called K-Stran™, the most advanced manufacturing process for superior flatness and consistency. King StarBoard® ST has a matte gloss finish on both sides of the sheet. It is environmentally stabilized to withstand the harshest outdoor conditions. King StarBoard® ST will not rust, delaminate or rot when exposed to UV, humidity or water. It is one of our most scratch-resistant polymers, making it an excellent construction material for cabinetry, furniture and architectural partitions. The polymer sheet never needs painting or refinishing, works like wood and is easy to fabricate using common woodworking tools and techniques.

King Starboard ® (HDPE) sheet has done more to relieve boat owners from lengthy maintenance work than any other marine material. This is because this revolutionary material is now used to make the parts that were previously fabricated from teak wood. Thus, boaters have been freed from the haste of washing and oiling their teak. It is used in the marine industry on rod holders, tackle boxes, cutting boards, drink holders, access doors, swim platforms, console doors, hatch covers and a wide variety of other parts. The standard sheet size of King Starboard® is 54" x 96" and it is available in thicknesses ranging from 1/4" through 1 1/2" thick.
Acrylic, or Plexiglass, is often thought of as a clear plastic sheet used for such things as aquariums and brochure holders. While this is true, many of the components on today's boats are fabricated from Acrylic sheet. Some of this material is found in easy to recognize parts such as clear bait well lids or boat windscreens. In addition to the clear Plexiglass we are familiar with, there are a wide variety of colored and tinted acrylics. These acrylics range from having a fair amount of transparency to being completely opaque colors that allow no light transmittance. Many of today's acrylics are color matched to the same color of the boats gel coat color. more
While King Starboard® is great to work with, there are a couple of challenges to consider. Unlike Acrylic, Starboard has a textured finish and does not achieve the high gloss look of Acrylic. In addition, as with all thermoplastic sheet, King Starboard® has limited stiffness. This is important to keep in mind when building large parts that may be stepped on or have limited support underneath. Starboard will not break, but can bend if not properly supported. Be sure to store your Starboard flat or vertical. If you lean a large sheet against a wall at an angle the material can sag over time, especially in the heat.
