Default Teak Alternatives

I am going to be replacing and adding some extior wood to my
fiberglass sailboat and want to know if there are some other suitable
woods. My primary concern is weathering, the boat will be outside in
the pacific northwest all year, I plan on using teak oil for the
finish. I have seen Khaya, and Mahogony refernced for use in boat
building, but I do not know if that truelly crosses over to exterior
wood.

thanks
Jeff
