June 1–8, 2025 marks National Fishing and Boating Week, a time to reconnect with the water, enjoy the outdoors, and kick off the summer boating season. Whether you’re heading out to fish, cruise, or relax with family, the quality of your experience depends on the reliability of your equipment—and that includes the materials used in your boat.
At King Plastic Corporation, we manufacture polymer sheets that are engineered to perform and last in marine environments—rain or shine, season after season. If you’re a boat owner, fabricator, or marine industry professional, National Fishing and Boating Week is a great reminder to enjoy time on the water with those who matter most, with the confidence that your boat is built with reliable, long-lasting components.
Performance Materials for a Marine Lifestyle
Many boat builders and marine fabricators choose King Plastic polymer sheets for critical components like:
- Cabinetry and storage
- Hatch covers and access panels
- Console faces and dashboard trim
- Decking and anti-skid surfaces
Popular King Plastic Products for Boats
- King StarBoard® – The original marine-grade HDPE sheet. Used for cabinetry, hatches, trim, and more. Works like wood, but won’t rot or absorb water.
- King StarBoard® AS – Designed with a non-slip surface. Ideal for decks, swim platforms, and any place where traction is critical.
- King StarBoard® XL – A lighter-weight version of the original, often used in non-structural applications to help reduce overall boat weight.
- King StarLite® XL – A cost-effective, lightweight utility sheet made with recycled HDPE. Commonly used for furniture substrates, drawer bottoms, and wall panels inside boats.
Planning a Boat Upgrade?
If you’re preparing your boat for summer or planning a DIY upgrade, now’s a good time to consider materials that will hold up over time. Polymer sheets from King Plastic:
- Never need painting or sealing
- Can be cut with common woodworking tools
- Are easy to clean and maintain
These benefits are especially important for frequent boaters who want to spend more time on the water and less time on upkeep.
