Boat paint vs. Exterior House paint

We have to paint some exterior wood work on our boat and I am trying to figure out why we need boat paint versus using a latex exterior house paint. I hate to paint to wood work but it is just a fix until we have the time and money to re-do all the wood so we'd like it to last a while but we are planning on re-doing the wood at some point. So, do we HAVE to use boat paint for the exterior wood trim or can we get away with latex house paint?

Any help would be appreciated.
 
If it is indeed teak, why not sand and oil? It's very durable and expensive to replace. Also painting teak would be a crime against humanity, it's so beautiful!
