Coincidently, there is an interesting review on this type of product in the
newest issue of Practical sailor. They reviewed Tek-Dek and Flexiteek and
MarineDeck 2000. Overall it was a favorable review of this promising
technology.

Actually, the article in P.S. was of *Synthetic* teak decking
products. Mr. Tuomela appears to be offering a prefabricated
*natural* teak decking system.

Given that the cost of the raw material, i.e. 1/2" X 1 7/8" vertical
grain, rabbetted teak decking planks is about $15 sq / ft (see:
http://www.sjlumbermans.com/products/ [for example]), I think I'll do
the work myself...

Some of the better builders in these parts use custom prefabbed decking from
Teakdecking systems (http://www.teakdecking.com/). I've been told that it's less
expensive than yard labor rates, but it was still a bit high for me. The result
is finestkind. I've used their teak decking sealant with good results.

Mike,
That SJ Lumberman's site looks good . . . it should - it's new.

Don't just go by their prices, they tend to be a bit high. Teak is already
expensive, without adding dollars for simple operations. A flat plank,
decent router and carbide bit . . . and 'Bob's your uncle !!'.

There has GOT to be a supplier near you - in Southern California. Even if
you have to get it from Port Townsend {WA}, it would be cheaper than a
coast-to-coast shipment.

Regards & Good Luck,
