Hi,

I don't want to rain on your parade but a lot of the "high quality" woodwork seen on yachts today is not all that it seems, nearly all will be a veneer of some sort over either a ply or composite ( MDF Etc)underneath.

Surely you could get one of the many excellent cabinet makers in your backyard to make you one exactly as you want it,without the need to order by remote control.

Then there is of course all the customs hassle with wooden things from anywhere entering Australia that you may want to investigate prior to ordering something overseas.
