Hi from Atlanta. The picture you see here is the wood dash of my '75 Starcraft. Obviously not the original piece, but it was fine until this summer when the wood started to split along the grain horizontally. Emergency measure: I applied two nickel house numbers to stop the splitting from worsening, but I'm going to replace it (and the other side while I'm at it). This is not a showcase boat, but I don't want it to be ugly either. What is the best material to replace this dash with? A one-piece board like is on there currently, or I've been reading about marine lumber like StarBoard. Any advice? Thanks.
