Perfect! I've had John at Buckwoodcraft make some custom parts for me. Great to deal with and excellent quality..
Thanks! Here's our grate! I sent an email asking for a quote.
Custom King Starboard Cockpit & Shower Grates
...
I'd consider CPES epoxy then a nice coat of thicker epoxy to preserve what you have before considering replacement. It might be able to strengthen and beautify the teak with minimal investment of time or treasure, alleviating the need for replacement.
..... I'm thinking that this is not just apiece of starboard with some holes drilled in it.
...At this point I am thinking about getting one done for my shower.
I hope, if you get one from them, you post some photos (including close ups) so we can get a good look at it.

Holy crap Al. That’s art not a piece of furniture.
What about the plastic decking lumber sold at home supply stores? You can get it in a sort of wood-like color, if white won't look right.
We got the new shower grate today. We ended up going with 1", non-skid Star Board. I sent John Arbuckle at Buck Woodcraft a template I traced out on a couple of paper bags. He called with a couple of questions and offered a few suggestions. A super guy/company. They're in Marathon and with all the stuff going on from Irma he still fit us in quickly.
The grate is about 2' across on the lonest dimension. It's solid as a rock but just in case John included the cut offs from the square so we could support the center if needed. Cost, including shipping and tax was $353.12
