Big deal. My boat has real solid teak. It's a pain to keep
oiling it. I think that plastic coated veneer fake teak is
better.


In retrospect... there's a lot to be said about the simplicity

of a Windex
wipe and a spray of pledge. Seriously though..... Ozone has us

all beat for
bullet proof interiors.



Yeah, he can go inside with a power washer and simply hose er
down.
MacGregor brags about that feature on their X boats.

Its also makes it easier to get the wife to help with spring clean up to
ready the Mac for the water too!!!

Yup, they are. So are Chris Bangle's ugly new BMW auto

designs. No
accounting for aesthetic taste these days.


Yulp, look at the Pontiac Aztec, or the new Tribecas.


How about the Honda Element or the Scion Box? And let's not forget my
current favorite, the Pontiac Solstice. But yeah, the Aztec wears the
crown. I think GM dropped it from their line.

Of course some folks "like" oiling thier teak.


If it's below decks, you might try varnishing it.


Depends on what you like. I have teak plugs over the s/s screws in the
teak. I like to be able to access anypart of the boat. If that entails
removal of some teak... it's far simpler and less damaging to remove the
plug on oiled teak than on teak with 10 layers of varnish. Oiling teak is
a simple effective method to maintain wood with a nice effect. Varnished
glossy interiors belong on vessels where the work is done primarily by the
yard or hired out.


Varnish is *always* better done by someone else. g

Golly, Maxipad....you already said you like the boat. You're as bad at
this as Jeff.

I like the 35s5 just fine. Since you seem to be clueless, Bubbles, I'll
spell it out for you: it's not your boat I'm jousting with, it's your
hubris. Humility is an endearing characteristic. You might wish to give
it a try.

Max


Kinda the pot calling the kettle black isn't it?



Oh? How's that, Gary? Do you see me bragging about my boat, my cameras, my
this, my that every day with 50 to 100 posts? Do you hear me denigrating
others boats in order to make mine seem superior?

Max


I don't see you denigrating other peoples boats but other people.

We'll have to test that theory someday Bob..... :-)


PHRF below 130 aint no theory. Mooron. Chill, baby.



OOooo, 130. Impressive.

When you've sailed a boat or two with negative PHRF numbers, call me back.

Max


I went for a ride on Dragonfly, PHRF NW of -105. It was really
exciting. Dragonfly is the fastest boat around here I think.

Continuing with that argument, Bubbles, your Bendy should be trimmed
with
balsa or styrofoam.


Within reason. Everyone's extreme is different.
BTW, you still have sent no pic of your boat.
