Thanks for your feedback Marin and you are absolutely correct, but I use my boat year round, and don't keep it covered all the time. Even with covers on certain parts, the wood degrades, so I am looking at products I have not tried in the past to see if I can prevent UV and dirt from graying the timber.

So, 1 vote for keeping the teak covered.

Anyone else tried the product Teak Wonder?

p.s. I am referring to decks only here, not handrails etc.
