That’s also my dilemma about changing the classic look and feel of this lovely older yachts that will hopefully be around for many more years. Thank you for the content

@@georgepavlou8990 Thanks for following. I guess the new deck will last 40 years, and in that perspective it is worth it.

Thank you for this series I’m starting the process on a Nauticat 38 myself & costing the difference between Estech synthetic teak & Kiwi Grip non skid paint. I would also like to keep the yacht as original as possible but keep the Maintanance under control Looking forward to watching your progress

Paint would certainly be cheaper, but it will totally change the apperance of the boat. For me a boat should be both practical and beautiful. But I do understand those who go for paint as well.

I have the same dilemma.. at the moment the number one option is to remove teak and paint with non skid. But not concluded yet. Still thinking.... Gluck!

@@MayerDru That is a good solution as well. I considered that, but ended up with artificial teak. Really looking forward to see the result.

Yes, I know. We will certainly not get our money back, in best case half of it. Our option has been to sell the boat and buy another boat. Problem is, they dont make boats like this at an affordable price. So we can spend 50.000 USD on an upgrade, or 500.000 USD on a newer boat. With a «normal» sailboat it would be another story, but we definitely want a pilot house motor sailer, and those arr expensive. The modern alternative is a @SiriusYachts or a Moody 45 DS, but after looking at the price of these boats the new deck on the Nauticat looks reasonable. To each his own…

@@Sailing-Majayou should get a synthetic teak. Or Cork. On Yachting Worlds there is an article about it. Otherwise buy a new old Nauticat 38.

You could say yachting is a waste of money too. it is all just perspective
