As you read in the last album, this refinish project was done over the summer of 2004. Weather was unusually bad here in Northern NY state, so we decided as a family that this would be the year that we took care of "most" of the cosmetic stuff.

I'd like to thank Tom Fabula from Signature Finish in Florida for his help. His product, "Honey Teak", is by far the absolute toughest marine finish for teak that you can get. Powerboat Reports magazine did a long term test on finishes and this one came out on top. You can click on the hyperlink on each page to the left, of just click on the picture, to get to his site. (UPDATE! After one full season in the sun, and under scampering, wet feet, fish guts and hamburgers, there is no, repeat NO, work needed on any of the wood finished with Honey Teak!)
