Liberty Ship Hatch Cover Nautical Coffee Tables #41: This WWII Liberty Ship Wooden Hatch Covers has NEVER been restore or refinished and still has remnants of its original gray/green paint used during WW2. It is in exceptional condition and ready to be restored and stained to match YOUR nautical home decor and nautical coffee tables!

Most of these Liberty Ship Wooden Hatch Covers have already been refinished and restored using a stain that may or may not match with your existing home furniture or nautical decor. And due to the age of these hatch covers the wood is typically very dry just absorbs a refinishing stain like a sponge sometimes up to half an inch. Additionally due to the fact that these wooden hatch covers have bounced around the oceans and seas for many years the wooden planks are handsomely distressed with character cracks and crevises which also allows a refinishing stain to naturally penetrate deep into the wood.

The Liberty Ship Hatch Cover offered here as advertised is "raw and unfinished" so as to allow you to restore it as you wish and to stain it to meet your nautical home funishing decor. While the photograph shows the wood to be a brown color it is actually more gray due to the natural weathering, perfect for restoration!

Whether it be one a Nautical Coffee Tables, Nautical Tables, Nautical Bench or Pew, or a Nautical Desk made from restored 60 year old WW2 Liberty Ship Hatch Wooden Hatch Covers you will be very pleased with both the quality and durability of this nautical furniture to add to your nautical decor. The above photo's show the nautical table/desk along with 2 other companion pieces - the bench and the pew, both made from the planks of WW2 Liberty Ship Hatch Covers. Sometimes we get these hatch covers where all we can salvage is one or two planks. As you know these hatch covers sailed the world over on our Merchant Marine Fleet of Liberty and Victory Ships during WW2 and afterwards some were decommissioned and put into what was called the "Moth Ball Fleets" stragetically placed around the country. Other Liberty Ships were sold to private shipping companies and given or sold to other countries where they saw service up until the 1960's. So as you can see these hatch covers have plenty of wear and tear from the oceans and seas they sailed upon.

BTW, these hatch covers are child proof! Nothing can destroy them! So if you are seeking a fine piece of authentic vintage nautical furniture which will take further use, and be turned into a family heirloom handed down from generation to generation then this is it!

The WW2 liberty ship hatch cover tables, nautical coffee tables, nautical tables are restored from the wooden hatch covers of a U.S. Navy liberty ship which was used by the merchant marine during WWII.
These Liberty Ships were the mainstay in sending cargo and troops to all four corners of the world during the second world war.
The rate and speed of their production needed to be faster than the German submarines could sink them, so their was a very high attrition rate.
The wooden hatch cover tables offered at the Pirates Lair came from the Liberty Ships which survived the war.
