OK. polyboard is the same as StarBoard. I did not realize that. The StarBoard I have seen looks like it has a "skin" whereas the polyboard looks like it is uniform throughout. Must be several different kinds of StarBoard. Thanks!

Warren,
The outboard railing mount in the "Thataway album" is made out of an old swim step which was on the Century 18 CC I purchased at an hurricane salvage auction. The SS tubing was bent, and it was cheaper to buy a new complete step with tubing than have new tubing fabricated.
It appears to be King Starboard. There are some other materials which are similar to starboard. The problem with Starboard is that not many glues or sealants adhere to Starboard. It has to be screwed or bolted. It will cold flow, and it has to be supported every 16" (3/4" stock).
It is a wonderful material--but has its limitations. There are a number of other similar products made by King--and some do have a facing on them.

Hi Folks,
If I was looking for a storage box for my cockpit, I would buy a large Colman Ice Box with a cushion on top. Serves as a seat. You don't have to add ice.
Just one man's idea.
