Default Aluminum boat seats

Hi all,

I have an old Starcraft 14' aluminum rowboat with three
flat wooden seats. The seats are old, rotting out, I
need to replace them. They are just pieces of 1"x12".

I'm wondering what type of wood to use, the guy I bought
it from said he had replaced them years ago with teak.

Anyone know what type of wood to use? Teak a good idea?
Maybe just a piece of pine?

Thanks,
Julien

Red or white cedar is well regarded for use near water.
