Your cart is empty.Teak is one of the world's most desired hardwoods. Its naturally high oil content makes it incredibly durable. Teak resists warping, rotting, termites and other insects. Teak will last for decades. Teak can withstand the most extreme weather conditions including salt, sun, snow and rain. Because of teak's unique properties it has been the choice of mariners for centuries. Not only is teak durable, it's beautiful to see and touch. Its intricate grain patterns and color variations make each piece unique unto it's self. There are no other hardwoods that can match the soft, warm, silky feel of teak that comes from the rich oil contained in the wood. When teak is exposed to the year-round outdoor climate it will, over time mature to a silvery grey color. To preserve the rich golden finish and enhance the grain apply golden teak oil/sealer annually. Teak can be left out in the weather all year long. Whitecap teak products are made from kiln dried, fully aged teak wood. To ensure strength and durability, each of our handcrafted products uses traditional assembly techniques, such as dovetail and mortise & tenon joints. All screw fittings are countersunk and plugged. Only high-quality waterproof adhesive is used. Each item is sanded and finished by hand to a rich elegant luster. No other species or origins of wood are used in our products. All our products are made of solid teak.

This bracket will see little use on my stern rail, as I intend to keep the outboard installed on the dinghy (slung on davits). So it is intended for back-up use. One detail I was impressed with was hidden on the inside… there are opposing-grained inserts where the rails go through the teak block. These will strengthen the wood and help prevent warping or splitting over time. A nice touch that isn’t even featured in the write-up.

The wood isn't a hard enough quality for clamping things down nice and snug for travel in the rough seas.Took a week long trip last week using this new mount for the first time. On the 3rd leg when I lifted the outboard onto it and claped it down for travel, the wood snapped. Great--still 5 days of the trip to go, ugh. Maybe i should have varnished it to make it more durable?

Das Holz ist vergleichsweise weich, die Größe der Platte reicht für den AB so gerade aus.

Just what we needed. Tube adapters work well to customize fit. Teak looks great.

The wood is too thin where the cutouts are for the rails or possibly the kiln drying is insufficient. Mine split from top to bottom along the grain within a month.

Product was as described. Arrived on time. Comes with SS hardware. I had to modify it a little to fit the railing on my sailboat (it requires a orthogonal alignment of the vertical and horizontal railing). Since it remains outside I treated it with teak oil and it looks beautiful.

Well constructed motor bracket made from TEAK. This was a great selling feature, as it matched the wood on my boat. Teak is also an oily wood that has great weather resistant qualities near the ocean; especially sea water.
