Teak sole and gunwale/covering boards new install

Give Jarret Bay a call, they can probably ball park it with you over the phone. They do very good work and close to where you're going to be.

ConsiderWanchese NC , several boatyards there ,maybe a more competive price . Edward

Yes I think it would look great. To much white on your boat, you need some contrast! Plus it would feel better on the feet along with great traction.
. AND it will help with fishing when you drop something on the aft deck, a nice quite thud as opposed to a louder gelcoat boat transmitting ring/thud/tap...lol. Just what you don't need to announce to the fish ''I'm hear!''

I have nothing to offer on where to get it done though. But..

I think Viking may offer this work at their yard in NJ. Maybe big $$ there. As Capt J said call around. Send photos of your boat with dimensions. Anyone who knows what they are doing should be able to give you a pretty good quote over the phone/email.

Are any of the new synthetic teak flooring lines worth considering? Do they outperform teak in terms of maintenance, cost or durability? I recall seeing them installed on some decent quality boats at shows recently.

They outperform teak as far as Maintenance (little to none),and cost (less than half), but durability/life I'd say on average they last about half as long as a teak deck generally.

I'm sure the real thing and the synthetic are glued these days and that you're not going to put 1250 screw holes in the boat right?

Faux is faux and will look faux. That includes body parts. Nothing beats the real thing.

The last Faux teak decking that I saw that lasts for ever and looked ok was/is the decks on the old Chris Craft Commanders which was molded into the fiberglass/gel coat. but it was the same color of the boat....

My previous boat had teak sole,cockpit coaming and toe boards and I always liked the way it looked but I never enjoyed all the time it took to keep it looking good. My current 93 Post is set up like yours with no natural wood exposed to the elements and I love it. We are in Florida with 12 months of sun and 12 months of use every year so I'm sure my maintenance was much more time consuming than yours will be in the northeast.

Or, if you have enough money. You just pay someone else to maintain it.

I still have a 28' Cavalier (1962) but it's tucked akay in a building as a reminder of how much work as wooden boat can be.

I don’t consider teak trim and cockpit deck etc. on a fiberglass boat real wood “ work” . It’s purely aesthetic’s and performs a nice function on a deck.

Do it Beau, keep it clean and natural.
Don’t cover it with any oils or varnish etc.
Then it’s not too bad to keep up the nice look.
