Cockpit table with compass rose inlay

A solid teak cockpit table with a polished stainless steel compass rose inlaid flush into its surface — a working piece of deck furniture that doubles as the centrepiece of the cockpit. The top is framed by a mitred border and articulated with caulked feature lines, the same visual language as the deck it sits on.

An inlay like this is an exercise in precision. The stainless compass rose has to be let into the teak so that its face sits perfectly flush with the surrounding timber, with a clean, continuous line all the way around a complex multi-pointed shape — any gap or step at that junction is immediately visible and impossible to hide. The mitred border and caulked feature lines are set out to frame the rose and keep the whole top symmetrical.

Workshop-fabricated and finished, the table pairs the warmth of solid teak with the crispness of polished stainless, and ties itself to the yacht through the compass motif. It is the kind of bespoke piece that turns a standard cockpit into something specific to one boat — practical furniture executed to the standard of fine joinery.

The correct intervention starts with the correct diagnosis.
