Bill - Nope.. not on there. I have someone coming to look at my Precision 23 tomorrow (hopefully to buy it) and there are three pieces of teak that have grayed (two handrails and an instrument mount). It's 30 degrees up here, but the boat is stored in a warehouse where the ambient temp is around 40 degrees. We actually went ahead and did it and the oil did soak in well after sanding.

On our Passport 40, we just pulled up all of the thyocol and put new stuff down, put new bungs in where needed and bleached the decks. As of last weekend, she's done. She looks good
