Teak Care

Teak is a unique wood used for marine applications. It is an open cell wood

that is highly resistant to the dry-rot associated with many other woods and is

also highly resistant to marine organisms. Don’t coat the teak on your boat with

any kind of varnish or polyurethane coatings. There are several teak oils

available at marine supply stores.

When the teak on your boat is new, it has a medium brown color. After a period

of time, exposure to the elements will cause it to turn a weathered gray color.

If you want to refinish the teak, we suggest you purchase a teak cleaner from

a marine supply store. Follow the instructions on the teak refinishing bottles.

You should use these products in an open space with eye protection, rubber

gloves and good ventilation. Be very careful to avoid spilling these products

on any part of your body.

Metal Care

Keep all metal work rinsed and wiped dry. Periodically polish it with a

commercially available metal polish.

Glass Care

Your windshield, mirrors and gauge faces all deserve the same attention as the

other parts of your boat. Clean them often with commercially available glass

cleaners.
