Re: Starboard hatches?
My 18' Maritime Skiff has a large rear casting platform made of Starboard, and it's fine. It's pretty well supported underneath by an aluminum frame, and there's been no warpage or cracking, and it doesn't seem overly slippery. I'm up and down walking across that sometimes wet rear deck very often, jumping down off the poling platform, etc. and have never had a problem. It is heavy, and expensive. But I imagine it would work well for hatches.
