Marine & Boat leather
Boat leather means the leather that is used on ships and boats. There are two separate applications. Inside the ships, where the weather is not directly affecting, almost every kind of leather is processed. Particularly on luxury ships, every exotic leather is processed in addition to the traditional cow leather.
In the outdoor area the cushions of the benches and berths are almost exclusively covered with imitation leather. Genuine leather would not last long under constant sun, temperature fluctuations and humidity. In addition, suntan cream damages leather. Even artificial leather becomes yellow from sun creams very quickly. Historically, Eskimos used leather for the outer covering of their boats.
Imitation leather outside the boat.
The right choice: Imitation leather in the floating car.
Boat leather in its origins: Fully leather - covered boat, seen in DLM - Geman Leather Museum in Offenbach.
