"in the case of teak decked boats"

Yes I'm aware of this issue and in fact there are whole production runs with this problem and especially the make I'm looking at. This example has a glass deck. One I looked at earlier had stained linings below from exactly this problem. I don't favor teak decks because of the fixing problem and the fact they are too hot in the tropics. Maintaining them is another issue and anyone who has caulked a teak deck probably never orders another one.

I'm not sure of the exact construction yet.
