Here are some comments:
Consider investigating the teak deck shop at Moody Yachts in the UK
(if for no other reason than the information if distance is an
issue...and check their website)
There are as many opinions on maitaining the teach deck as there are
captains...just ask around a marina. I have heard everything from
toilet bowl cleaner to cascade dishwasher detergent. But I agree,
gentle is the watchword. And, I agree, clean salt water is important.
Great footing and look. Quite resiliant.
Some issues with caulking, even in the no (fewer) fastenings type.
Main concern in adding a teak deck to a boat is the weight
distribution change.
Hope this helps

Scrubbing w/ a brush a water is adaquate to bring back the healthy pink
glow of untreated teak.

Teak decks, in my experience, provide the very best footing in a
pitching boat. Cleaning it is biggest challenge. I use straight Clorox
to keep that nutty brown color and to clean in thouroughly.
