Mine is made of Mahogany. The choices are endless. Whatever floats your boat.

There are many choices of appliques you can apply over wood.

Mine whaler console was teak over fiberglass. Currently I rebuilt the fiberglass and plan to add the teak again later. I like the longevity and strength of fiberglass and the color and grain of teak. What wood you use is up to your taste, just keep it sealed.
