Going back with King's Starboard in black. Can I still keep my registration on this site? Need a good source of Kings Starboard. Any help?

I think Mike at Nautical Lumber is a dealer. Wonder if there would be any interest in a completely Starboard interior for the 13/15. They have a color that is a near match to the desert tan.

Somewhere in my extensive collection of Boston Whaler boat photos, I have one of a 15 Sport completely redone and accurately duplicated in black starboard. Didn't look too bad, although the yacht quality of a highly varnished interior was missing. Saw the boat in Ft Lauderdale. The thwart seats needed center supports
Would not recommend the tan starboard. Whaler tried using some of that in the mid- 90's and it looked terrible. Also it gets easily marked up and can't be cleaned. I have cooler cleats in my ribside from the tan color, and it looks nowhere near as good as the black ones.
Starboard was never meant for large pieces like seats and side cleats, as it warps. It was designed for small pieces and doors.
