What an absolutely brilliant video, and that was some serious work that you put in there. Kudos to the two of you!!! We are so excited that you used our SIS-440 Caulking and tools! So we have built and installed over 50,000 decks ranging from productioin boats, sailboats to superyachts and battleships (we've just finished USS Alabama). We want to provide you with our insider tips for cleaning and maintaining your deck.: 1. As many of you have said, wood should be scrubbed across the grain with a medium scrubbing pad or a soft bristle brush then rinsed with water. Scrubbing with the grain tears the soft grain from the planks, leaving the surface rough. If you don't want to use saltwater then we would suggest you use our ECO-100 Teak Cleaner Powder on a weekly basis and ECO-300 Teak Cleaner Liquid monthly. But more importantly, please be aware of these other type of cleaners: Two-Part Cleaners - overuse, or improper use, of two-part caustic acid cleaners shortens the life of teak decks. These cleaners should only be used when everything else has been tried. Chlorine Bleach / Acid Cleaners / Teak Oil - Do not use chlorine bleach to bleach the deck or acid type cleaners. Chlorine will attack most caulking products, and acid cleaners will soften the caulk, causing cracks between the seam and wood. A number of you are suggesting oils, but we do not recommend the use of them on exterior teak decking as it promotes mold growth and attracts dirt and other contaminants. Happy sailing!!!!!! ⛵
I can arrest to their ECO-100 and -300. They have kept my teak like new for 10 years. I clean about once per month when the teak has gone grey and restore right back to a natural colour every time. Great job guys.
THE ABSOLUTE HARDEST-WORKING COUPLE I HAVE EVER WATCHED AND HEARD OF!! The deck is beyond beautiful, especially after you showed us the process you went through from beginning to end.
Nandji II is looing quite sporty with her restored teak deck. You worked like a dog sanding and recaulking the deck but your reward speaks for itself, well done Yosh & Bonita!
Hi guys! My husband and I did a total restoration on our teak deck also. We used the same tools, same steps, however, we decided to tape and yeah it added to the prep time but the sanding afterwards was much easier. As for maintaining the beautiful honey teak color, we keep ours all natural. No sealant, no oil. About once a month, we scrub it down with soapy water and a soft boat washing brush and cleans it right up. And about once a year, do a quick 100 grit sand on the deck the brighten the color back up. Your teak looks great, you guys did a wonderful job! And we also feel the same, that we will never do the teak restoration again!! Cheers!
D'amn! that deck looks amazing !! Talk about busting butt. I have so much admiration for you guys. That's a 40K deck ready for 25 more years. Well done.
Beautiful job! What an enormous amount of labor, but I guess you just keep reminding yourselves of the $40K saved. It's just work, after all! All the sweat paid off. It was a great education for me, and I'll be less hesitant to buy a boat that has teak decks, knowing that with perseverance, you really can do it yourself. I like the idea of removing all the screws and epoxying the bungs. Also Yosh's technique of letting the caulk cover the teak and sanding off looks like a winner! Great job y'all!
What a couple of stormers!!!!!! The teak looks incredible. Most sealants will take away the none skid aspect of the teak. Your only real option for keeping the color and non skid is oil. " Soup" is what the ol'timers call it. Once a month (depending on the weather) you have to sluice it down with a mop full of linseed, thinner and tar. Lot's of different recipes for boat soup, you can adjust to taste/temps/and color. It's a lot of upkeep, but, if you own a house you have to mow the lawn, right. That said, now you have redressed the corking, it should still look great if you let it gray out again. And you literally clean it with a bucket of seawater and a really stiff yard brush.
Well done Yosh and Bonita! Tons of work to get there but the finished deck looks AMAZING! These are three major projects you have taken on in this yard period but well worth it. You'll appreciate all this as you sail west! Teamwork makes the dreamwork!👍😊❤️❤️
oil it...I have patio furniture over 80 years old...just oil. It stays out in the winter, gets hot heat in the summer...and it still looks pristine. Looks amazing!! great job guys!
Teak is gorgeous oily wood. Teak oil can’t hurt and may even keep some moisture out of the boat. U guys are a favourite channel and have been for some years. Great energy! Come to the Pacific Northwest 😊❤
Probably too late to the party but I just finished mine with Teak Wonder dressing, after sanding and leveling the caulk. Super easy to apply, very fast, it dries after an hour and it looks amazing! Probably need to re-apply every 6 months if you want it to stay that color but it's an easy 1 hours work on my boat (Najad 360).
Been through much of the same over the years with our 1978 Lafitte 44. We eliminated a lot of leaks associated with the tracks and it went well. Pull up the track, sand flat. drill each hole oversize. Our bolts were 7/16 and we drilled 1/2" holes we taped the underside and filled the holes with an epoxy mix and then sanded the deck and epoxy flush. Then drilled and tapped for the 5/16 bolts which were coated with 4200 and tightened thru the deck. Even if you get moisture under the teak it can't penetrate the deck, We finished off with oversize washers to spread the load as the nuts were tightened, No leaks and super strong! I believe the deck will make its 50th birthday.
What an amazing video. Super hard work but the results were amazing. Fantastic job from both of you. We are at the stage of planning this work on our 2003 Beneteau Oceanis 411 Celebration. The teak is now showing its age and we need to repair/replace a number of bungs and split/missing caulking. Seeing what you guys did really gives us confidence. TDS tools are on order and we think we'll use the non taping method as the deck will benefit from a light sanding anyway. Where the teak meets the toe rail and coach roof I saw you had taped over. Did you do the edge seems also? I think replacing the bungs as a first step was also a great idea and I had worried about this initially. But removing the screws and drilling and filling the hole with epoxy into the core makes perfect sense and no water penetration possible forever! Have read many many things about what to do with the deck post restoration. Oil it, leave it etc. It will be interesting to see what your approach is longer term. We are a new scubscriber so will watch your exploits with interest. Happy sailing.
Great episode guy's! With the capping rail you could counter sink screws and timber plug over screws with epoxy. Probably too late now! All the best! Yewww
WHAT an amazing job. I mean I have teak decks to do. So totally biased in my appreciation 😂 Possibly the best video yet although the Nandji 1 grounding was also a great video. LOVE you guys keep it coming !!
If Nandji II were mine, I'd use Semco on those gorgeous new teak decks. Once a year reapplication (maybe twice in the tropics) and they'll stay looking like they do now.
As I’ve said before on your channel, Yosh and Bonita are very talented sailors. The deck looks amazing! I agree that the next step is to seal it to retain the beautiful finish you have worked so hard to bring out the color of the natural wood. I’m anxious to see if you choose a sealer that makes the teak pop or use a grey sealer to make it look like an aged deck. Cheers 🥂!
The deck came out beatiful, what a job you two have been doing! To seal the deck you should be using a Swedish product called Sioox marine which is awsome. I have an friend who did this on his deck and it looks like a newly sanded deck after several years. Highly recommended.
Hi Guys. We met in Pangkor when we sailed through on our yacht Miss Saigon, a Duncanson 43 with the big graphic of a Vietnamese lady riding a bicycle wearing a traditional Vietnamese dress (Áo dài) in 2023. Last year we did a major refit at Phuket Boat Lagoon including teak work. After 35 years and 2 previous re-caulking's (similar to what you have done) we decided to replace the teak deck with non-slip other than some feature teak (Cap Rails, cockpit sole, deck above our state room and bowsprit). Over the years we have tried several methods to maintain the teak. First the cap rails. Previously we sealed the rails with either a two pack epoxy (2 coats), followed by 8 coats of spar varnish or 10 coats of spar varnish. The first method lasted about 5 years, but was a bugger to remove all the coatings especially the epoxy, once the water got under the coatings and turned white. Would take a week of preparation. The second method required a light varnish every season and two coats to keep the rails in good, sealed condition. We would get 3 , maybe 4 years from this but the sanding to bare was much easier (we could do that in one day. Since the refit we have decided to go with natural teak and let the cap rails go grey. We occasionally wash them and all the other feature teak with salt water. When we had the teak decks we used teak cleaner, teak enhancer, Endeavour oil etc but all these products remove the soft fibers of the teak and shorten the deck life. Every time we re-caulked we sanded back to smooth as you have done, but it only served to shorten the deck life. By the time we removed the teak it was paper thin in places. Originally about 8mm thickness. The feature teak we now have is left natural and as mentioned we wash down only with salt water and occasionally use some JIF or bleach to remove stains. This of course attacks the teak fibers but everyone loves a pretty boat. Our last teak lasted 35 years, we reckon we have a good decade or more before we need to rethink what we are doing.
Loved how you put the words 'Before' and 'After' on the pictures at the end. As if we couldn't tell. Looks brilliant. Not any experience on keeping a teak deck but my advice would be sacrifice looks for a lot less work.
You're new here? I suggest to go back and binge watch from the beginning, they were absolute novices when they started, but they work hard and learned quickly, taking advice from lots of people and now they are reaping the rewards, you'll have even more respect for them if you do see where they started from.
If you want the teak to be golden, use tung oil product like Tip Top Teak. However you have to oil monthly in the tropics or it is quickly back to grey.
Serious job there Mate FANTASTIC JOB!!! - I have the Hudson Forve 50 which is a teak farm of flat open expanse of the sumptuous wood... took me about 6 weeks working alone and went through 3 of those reefing knives cause they are super hard to sharpen, two or more cases of the 440, enogh sandpaer to fill a hadware store and worked till my hands bled...OMG it was a job but as you said it saved me the cost of the boat and looks tip top. Carry on Legends!
Last year I re-chalked my decks - I did also route out the groves back to 4mm due to wear :- I also taped the seams and used Sikaflex and primer - it took. 120 hours … I use semco honeytone teak sealer - and apply a fresh clear coat every 3 months - best of luck
Looking good, ya done good. When cleaning the deck in future use *soft bristle scrubbers* and only go *across* the grain, never scrub with the grain of the wood.
Awesome episode! The time & hard work definitely paid off, N2 looking amazing.Keep the beautiful colour by clear coating the teak ... it looks like a new boat
Teak is beautiful when it is freshly renewed. The challenge is the upkeep. Nandji looks super. The wonderful orange/brown color of sealed teak cannot be beat.
You guys Rock!! that is an amazing job-- I was literally holding my breath watching having had teak decks myself and knowing the amount of work. I am, as always, deeply impressed by your preparedness to jump in and take on bloody huge jobs. btw, let it go grey... also, I will now, never EVER have a teak deck--fibreglass and non skid for me! Phil
Holy moly Bonita and Yosh!I wanted to use cuss words in appreciation of this video, but now I think of Tallula❤ But thid is Just fn fantastically gorgeous!❤❤❤❤ What friggen hard work! But come on you both Aced It!❤❤ Its so fabulous! Its Art On Water! I'm blown away about the difference below the water line, and now above the water line! Beautiful Teak Deck brought back to new❤ Bless you both for your hard work, and anxious for next share video! Love you Tallula and your step brother Marley❤❤
That's a fabulous deck!!! All the fancy joinery work is so beautiful. Really glad you saved it and splashing salt water daily and shade is very very important. You can scrub with a medium bristle brush and use wood bleach occasionally as it is oxcilate acide crystal mixed with warm water and completely natural and nontoxic... I am certain that the value of the vessel just increased by $65,000 at least and you can be very proud of yourselves. The caprails need epoxy sealer and varnish.
Finally I unnerstand the screws removal with no replacement, Against all carpentry protocols Yosh. Looks great and yes put something on it to keep it that way, Bon Voyage Floating Family
I was wondering what the estimate was to remove the teak and replace with fiberglass? We are needing to do something with our decks on our Passport 51 from same era, so I am exploring options. We won’t be doing it yet this year, with all the other big jobs we have done, so an update on how it holds up will be VERY interesting to me as time goes by. Thanks for sharing your experience so far!

@@ylemoine1 Thank you, it is a fantastic product that maintains both your teak brilliantly and cares for the ocean.
@TDS - does Semco adversely affect SIS-440?
THE ABSOLUTE HARDEST-WORKING COUPLE I HAVE EVER WATCHED AND HEARD OF!!
The deck is beyond beautiful, especially after you showed us the process you went through from beginning to end.
I just watched 21 minutes and I'm exhausted. Well done kids.
Can someone please send these two some kneepads;) Hurts my knees to even watch haha. It's starting to look like a new boat

Teak oil? That's what I use on my teak furniture. Just a thought. Great video by the way! Australian work ethic at its finest.

I know that feeling of the love/hate with refinishing and recaulking but getting a final finish...always satisfying. Well done!
You know when a job is getting serious, is when the Dremel comes out!
Well done Yosh and Bonita! Tons of work to get there but the finished deck looks AMAZING! These are three major projects you have taken on in this yard period but well worth it. You'll appreciate all this as you sail west! Teamwork makes the dreamwork!👍😊❤️❤️

I’ve just pressure washed mine a couple times a year to keep it fresh. Just don’t use too much pressure. Done it for 20 years
You are such a hard worker!!!!! Way to go!!!!! I love it...
If Nandji II were mine, I'd use Semco on those gorgeous new teak decks. Once a year reapplication (maybe twice in the tropics) and they'll stay looking like they do now.
Beautiful teak... good job Yosh !
Amazing job,
You guys are the hardest working couple! The results are beautiful. Well done mates.
Job well done Yosh
It’s a team effort 👌 Bonita held her own!!
Great job…..and what a heck of a job to tackle yourselves.

Man, you two are not afraid of hard work. Very impressive. ❤
That was a twenty or more cases of beer job, Looks great you can get a teak oil that helps.
Great outcome for all your hard work - beautiful! Missed 'Llula in this video. Safe travels. ❤
Serious job there Mate FANTASTIC JOB!!!

Oil it with teak oil every 3 - 6 months . . . , perfect and beautiful!
Great job the boat is looking beautiful
Wow guys!! It looks stunning. Like brand new. Love your work ethic, enthusiasm and positivity. ❤
So beautiful. The Nandji family dominates the seas again!
Looking good, ya done good. When cleaning the deck in future use *soft bristle scrubbers* and only go *across* the grain, never scrub with the grain of the wood.

Can't wait to see the new rigging! You guys rock!
The deck looks fantastic,you guys did a really good job ,I would seal it after all that work
Straight up RESPECT!
Teak is so beautiful as well.
You guys are knocking it out mate
Great job on the deck guys.Had me worried when i saw all that black gunk but" Dame Edna" to the rescue.
Mate you guys did a bang up job you should be so proud it looks amazing. Greetings from Los Angeles x
You guys are beasts! What a job. Thats a lot of hard work. I did that years ago when I was a lot younger on my dads Choy Lee. Never again, ha ha.
Wow it looks amazing. Hard work but the reward is beautiful.
Teak is beautiful when it is freshly renewed. The challenge is the upkeep. Nandji looks super. The wonderful orange/brown color of sealed teak cannot be beat.
I would keep a small bag of the teak dust to Mix with any epoxy for filling gaps.
SEMCO makes a very nice sealer to protect all the work you have done.
Agree it's well worth it. Doesn't last forever but will make the teak look great and last a lot longer.
Don't waste all that hard work.
I heard Semco damages TDS SIS-440 - please check before using it.
After finishing that huge job, you two look like I need a beer!😊
I've been through that myself. It nearly bloody killed me. Well done. Looks frikin epic!!
Wow, I have the utmost respect for your extremely hard work to get that deck looking so awesome! Well done, it looks like a Million Dollars 😍🤩🥰
Wow wow wow absolutely stunning! Great effort guys!!!
All hands on deck! Xlnt job you two. 👏
That deck looks amazing. I would say whatever preserves the wood, the longest go with that.
That would be saltwater and shade
The end product of the teak decks is Beautiful!....That's a tough one to decide the next step....
Beautiful, just beautiful.
You guys Rock!! that is an amazing job-- I was literally holding my breath watching having had teak decks myself and knowing the amount of work. I am, as always, deeply impressed by your preparedness to jump in and take on bloody huge jobs. btw, let it go grey... also, I will now, never EVER have a teak deck--fibreglass and non skid for me!
