250 Sportsman Teak pictures

[jasoncooperpcola]

Here are a couple pictures of the teak i redid on my 250 Sportsman:

I made a new splashboard out of Brazilian Teak, still needs a couple more coats of teak oil. I won the stainless steel rod holders on ebay for $133.00



The original door. (Wish i had the before pictures, it was grey and rough and falling apart, literally.)



I am also currently working on a bow pulpit made out of the Brazilian Teak. I'll try to get pictures tomorrow.

I forgot to grab the camera on the way out so i took a picture with my phone. My pulpit is 2" thick by 15" wide by 48" long and made out of Brazilain Teak. It weighs about 60 pounds. (Not including clamps.)



I scraped excess glue off and belt sanded it some. Tomorrow it has a date with an air tensioned drum sander (36 grit belt).

You'll be able to do quadruple flips off of that platform (more like a diving board)

Geez, JC, that is one serious bow pulpit. Are you going to round off the front or leave it square?

Sadly the step pad and the rod holder are gonna have to be scraped down and re teak oiled because the varnish isn't sticking good. It looks pretty but its no use if it wont stick.
