Teak & Specialty Marine Lumber
Need Teak? I Know Where to Find It.
I make periodic sourcing trips to Florida and may be able to collect specialty marine lumber for your project. Send me your wish list before my next scheduled trip.
The Right Material Makes All the Difference
Good restoration work starts with the right materials. Whether you're replacing a worn teak cap rail, refinishing a cabin sole, or sourcing marine-grade plywood for a structural repair, the quality of the wood determines the quality of the finished work.
Nashville Boat Works works with World Panel Products, a Florida-based supplier of genuine teak, quarter-sawn teak, teak decking panels, teak-and-holly cabin-sole panels, marine-grade plywood, mahogany, and specialty hardwoods used in marine construction and yacht joinery.
I'm not a lumber dealer — but I travel to Florida periodically for sourcing and supply runs. If you need marine lumber, I can help you identify the right material, check current pricing and availability, and arrange to bring materials back during a planned trip. World Panel also ships nationwide, so there's always a path to getting what you need.

Materials We Can Help You Source
World Panel Products carries a comprehensive range of marine-grade wood products. Here are the materials most commonly needed for sailboat restoration and maintenance.
Genuine Teak Lumber
Flat-sawn and quarter-sawn teak in a range of dimensions. The gold standard for marine woodwork — naturally oily, dimensionally stable, and beautiful.
Teak Decking Panels & Slats
Pre-milled teak decking slats and full panels for deck replacement or new installations. Consistent thickness and grain for a professional finished result.
Teak-and-Holly Cabin Sole
Classic alternating teak and holly panels for cabin floors. Available in standard widths — the traditional interior look that defines a well-finished sailboat.
Marine-Grade Plywood (Okoume)
Lightweight, void-free Okoume plywood for structural and joinery applications. BS 1088 marine grade — the right choice for bulkheads, sole panels, and interior work.
Mahogany & Sapele
African mahogany and sapele for trim, cabinetry, and accent work. Rich color and workable grain — a step up from teak where appearance matters most.
Margin Boards & Specialty Pieces
Margin boards, tambour panels, and other specialty marine hardwood pieces. Ask about availability for your specific project.
