With the introduction of marine grade plastics in the early 90's, specifically King Starboard^®, the marine industry underwent a dramatic shift away from wood component parts towards plastic component parts. In 1990, 90%+ of Teak Isle's fabricated parts were composed of wood. By 1995, 90%+ were plastic.

The primary reason for such a transition was durability. King Starboard^® will last the lifetime of the boat with essentially zero maintenance. Teak wood requires regular oiling to help prevent discoloration and breaking down. King Starboard^® is a UV stabilized homogeneous sheet that will never discolor or require any oiling or refinishing.
