New Laid Teak decks done in Hout Bay,South Africa.

We have organised a number of these,with materials and labour here being  around half of the prices in Englands South Coast,we even had one Hallberg Rassy sail all the way from England here to have a new deck laid.Another boat,had its decks renewed here around five years back,the owner has just returned and has asked for the decks to be serviced by the same craftsman who laid them.


This Hallberg Rassy 42 has nice teak decks,we re laid them for the boats owner five years back.



We use first european quality (FEQ) teak,no sub grades,the planks are pre cut by myself for each section of the boats deck,with the grain on edge to allow more grip under foot and a longer deck life.

Note the details,this takes time and due to the fact we have to work on the boat in the water and with whatever the weather is,it does take time but the time and effort,plus a boats resale value is preserved.

A positive bonus is the HBYC marina fees,a long rental to a 40 to 50 feet sized boat will be around R1200 per month only,thats U$165 at todays exchange rate,so you can leave your boat here on moorings and fly home while the job is done.
