i get about 3-5 years out of cetol with no touch ups. the hatch sliders on the bow are the first to show wear. i like oil, but in the fl sun, it breaks down fast. last about 6 months. i know some who oil, then varnish and it looks great, like polyurethane, but recoating is a major pia. but i would definately stay away from any "paint" product.

I completely forgot that one NYMACK, that looks better than the CETOL. You can see more of the natural wood grain. Beautiful job, proves that there is more than one way to skin the cat. That is three options for you Wilson. No more teak for me. I love the looks of it, but lots of work.

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!
