1986 Marine Trader with old worn teak decks
The teak is in terrible condition. We have several leaks that are more aggravation than a problem, yet they must be fixed before damage is done.
When we bought the old boat we cleaned the decks and sealed them with Olympic deck sealer from Lowe's. Now in the monsoon season 5 years later we are seeing the leaks. So far the surveyor finds no soft deck core.
How much is the job to remove the old teak?
What is under the teak?
What are best tools, procedures and tips for removing?
Any one experienced in this adventure?
Thanks for sharing!
