Reinvent Your Boat with a Lightweight Okoume Dashboard Table, by Eric

An elegant maritime transformation

If you've ever dreamed of customizing your RIB with elegance and functionality, inspiration awaits you here. Discover how Eric beautifully transformed his boat's dashboard by creating a custom piece that combines aesthetics and practicality.

Custom design

Continuing with the idea of replacing the original table that was too heavy, Eric chose 15mm Okoumé Nautique B/BB plywood for its lightness and durability. This wood was precisely cut by TOSIZE.lu to meet the specific dimensions required for the boat. The new dashboard table fits perfectly into the existing design, with soft curves and a finish that exudes maritime freshness.

The details that matter

Each element has been designed for performance and aesthetics. A central cutout, trimmed with a stainless steel ring, adds a modern touch and also serves as a practical handle for moving the table. The rounded edges and smooth surface of the Okoumé wood offer a pleasant visual appearance and a pleasant touch.

Choices and advantages of DIY

By opting for a DIY project, Eric not only made substantial savings but also benefited from total flexibility in the choice of materials and dimensions. The dashboard fitted to his boat confirms that custom-made is not only possible but also very advantageous.

A sophisticated look

The end result of this DIY project shows that with talent and the right materials, it is possible to make beautiful and practical improvements to your boat. The new table, with its warm hue and satin finish, brings a touch of sophistication and functionality to this place of pleasure and relaxation.

The benefits of Okoumé

Okoumé plywood, chosen for this project, is known for its lightness and resistance to the elements, making it an ideal choice for the marine environment. Its ability to resist humidity and maintain its shape despite variable weather conditions brings undeniable added value.
