    Replacing Benches- Starcraft Seafarer

    Hi, I'm going to replace the benches on my Starcraft Seafarer and am wondering if anyone has a recommendation of what type of wood I should use. Whatever I use I'm going to triple coat in spar urethane and possibly cover with carpet. So appearance is not as important as strength and durability.
