David, I do not think starboard will handle a load if you actually try to sail with the board down. In all likelihood it will snap off.

In replacing center board it seems 1/4"starboard would be fine for its 1x3 dimensikns. 3/8 is too heavy . Any experience with this size of starboard in this application?
