Peanuts, dog food, cat food, bottle caps, screws, washers, nuts. Quite a
collection of junk under there when I pull them up to clean them.
Unfortunately, mine need
to be stripped and refinished. ANy suggestions on how to strip them will be
appreciated.

... and consider what happens when you dump the jar of peanuts. IMHO,
they're
a large nuisance and i'd prefer teak planking.

Although they look very nautical, ours has turned out to be a PITA.
It is uncomfortable on bare feet (not an often occurrance but it does
happen) and they are a bear to strip and refinish. A slat floor looks
almost as nice and is easier to maintain.

I would like to add a teak cockpit grate to my Dana 24 and would like
suggestions, ideas, etc. on how to approach this. I see there are
"kits"
of
sort that allow one to assemble a grate as opposed to having a custom
grate
made to fit. Any thoughts? Would appreciate advice on sources to
explore.

Thanks

Jerry
