I have a 87 SR cuddy cabin and I removed my anchor locker and installed a Lemar Pro Fish windless vertical. I mounted my battery back at the stern near my engine on the opposite side of my other battery. On my SR I had a pvc that ran down the center of the boat just under the floor 23 ft...

I would not use teak oil as I have an 87 SR and sanded all my teak down took it all off and oiled it, (3coats) and after 3 weeks it was starting to fade and did not have that clean look that I was looking for. So I pulled the teak off again re-sanded it and used Sikkens product. I used...

I tried Searayman does not have my size of lettering I am just looking for the lettering Sea Ray

Does anyone know of any outlet where a guy can find some Sea Ray Decals? I have an 87 cuddy cabin my letters are about 6" high and on the port and starboard near the stern.

Decals Say where did you get your new Sea Ray Decal?. I have a 87 and have been looking around to find some.

Good choice if you need some tips let me know if I can help it might be a slow process but its worth the time for the finished product.

I applied Cetol a Sikkins product it's not a varnish check it out https://www.google.com/search?q=cetol&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a&channel=fflb first time around I used teak oil and that was a big mistake had to remove it and apply Cetol.

I have spent a great deal of time with teak as I just finished re-sanding and replacing teak on my 1987 SR Cuddy Cabin. Make sure before you start sanding etc. that you get the old teak oil out of the wood first. I used a teak oil cleaner and scrubbed with a soft wire brush while rinsing with...

I used a teak oil cleaner with a soft wire brush and kept rinsing the teak, and then after it dried I used 180 to 220 sand paper to get it as smooth as glass. I applied 3 coats of Cetol (product of Sikkens) natural color and 3 to 4 coats of high gloss for the finish. I would not advise you to...

Al I built the pulpit myself I used 1 1/4 teak as it is the same thickness as my deck around the anchor locker. It is 4' long and 18.5 wide (with of the anchor locker). I built an aluminum 1/2 angle frame around the anchor locker to strengthen the windless. I used the FS 2 roller housing from...

What I did was wipe the old teak with a good teak oil remover soaked the teak with a rag let is sit for a min.and used a soft wire brush and and scrubbed it while rinsing it with water as you can see the oil coming out of the wood. You just have to keep applying the remover until the rinse...

OOPS! Did not snap down my carpet that is why you see wrinkles in it.

Well just thought I would share some of the pictures I just took after a years work on my boat. I just finished installing my pulpit which has a 700 pro fish windless with 125 ft. rode and 10ft chain 18 lb danforth anchor (will power spray anchor later not sure what color yet). Most of the...

I own a 87 SR cuddy cabin and I just restored my teak and replaced some teak through out my boat (23ft) and it looks real sharp. Personally I would not put any stainless on your rails as it takes away the classic look. I also just installed my pulpit out of teak so the rails on the bow flow...

I was refered to you by Woody as I posted requesting some info. on Club Sea Ray on getting my 23 ft. SR cuddy cabin painted . I am just about finished restoring her. Woody mentioned that you just had yours painted using Awlgrip was wondering if you were satisfied with that paint. My hull is...
