Does anybody know what stain what used or what stain is a good match for
the interior teak on an 1986 Hoyt F32? i need to touch a few areas
including the companionway which is pretty bleached out. Thanks.

I stripped the old Watkins Teak Oil finish from the wood around the
companionway and the wall on the starboard side by the steps on my
F36. I then used Silkens satin (3 coats) and 1 coat of gloss
overcoat. It matched the rest of the cabin woodwork (Watkins) very
closely. I’ve also used just the satin to repair dark areas around
those pathetic unreplaceable opening ports. I’ve used Silkens on my
exterior teak for years and it has stood up very well, particularly
if you add a new coat of gloss at the end or beginning of every
season.
