Teak

[cfelton]

I sanded and applied five coats of Pettit Captains Marine varnish with UV protectant, and it was beautiful. Its held up good for about five years, but I keep a boat cover on it all the time and its under shelter too. Its starting to peel alittle now and I'll do a touch up job on it this summer. For a boat that stays uncovered all the time I don't think it would stay on as long though. Teak is an oily wood and dosen't take varnishes and solid sealers very good. If I had to do it again I'd just try the Teak Oil products, probably would'nt have that deep glassy shine like the varnish though. Just my opinion!
