Refer to Inaforty's post....thats about right on what you have to do....
I pulled all the teak off the Wellcraft and sanded it down then used the Cetol and followed up with three coats of spar urethane. Took prob 60hrs from start to finish between fine sanding then oiling and then urethane'n and fine sandin in between three coats of the Urethane.....Two years and zero maintenance later(aside from rinse down) I was at the point where I "almost" had to start from scratch again. It WILL require yearly maintenance like Inaforty mentioned. Its beautiful when you keep it up or much less have the time to keep it up but I will make an oath to my Wellcraft Brotherin that I will never have teak again on another boat!!!
