teak decks

Some of the worlds best boats have teak decks, also some of the worlds worst. Either way they will eventually need replacing. Hardly anyone actually replaces with teak however. Teak decks are heavy and expensive. Teak decks of this era were screwed down, lots of screws that have probably allowed water into the sub deck. Expect rot under the teak. That needs to be repaired before the deck can be resurfaced. Probably with fiberglass. If you do all the work yourself you could probably spend 3-4k, have a yard do it and expect 10-20k.
