Coverboards
OHC sources 100% true Burmese Teak specifically for the marine industry, focusing on coverboards for sportfishing. The multi-step process of selection, sorting, seasoning, and kiln drying with daily checking ensures that these components are not only the highest quality, but also the most beautiful. After this process, OHC personnel hand grades each piece. The benefit of this lavish attention to detail is passed on to customers who can select in person, or via photographs, a specific board for their project.
