    teak and holly floor coating

    I have noticed that the teak and holly flooring on my E-28 could use a little "sprucing up" (no pun intended). It's not bad, just showing a little wear. Also it seems the softness of the teak has allowed a little bit of sand to get embedded into it in places or could I have not noticed before...

    Creaking Teak and Holly Floor

    Hi: I just purchased a 1988 Ericson 38-200 and love the boat. I have found that the Teak and Holly Sole creaks underway. I suspect a couple of things: 1. The screws below the bungs need to be tightened 2. The solid teak trim around the fall flexes against the teak furniture modules Has...
