I am doing the same on my rebuild. Absolutely no teak! I hate the stuff after all the time and effort and money I put into completely replacing all the teak on a 250 Sportsman just to have it look like crap three weeks later. NEVER AGAIN! We have a place here in Pensacola called Creative...
Not a bad price. But then again I get throw off someones property for offering them $300 for a v20 center console with a rubbish floor and busted hatches along with some stringer rot! :you: ..
Stay away from suzuki. I have a 17 year old truck that does not have the problems my 2006 Forenza does. About to pull the bulb on the check engine light. I do have gap though!

After discovering bubbles in the gelcoat on the bottom I almost gave up on her. I have Patriot Yacht Services coming by to look at the bubbles. Hopefully with his advice it wont be a nightmare. I looked at several V20 center consoles today. All had rotten floors and busted hatch lids. Sellers...
Talking with Patriot Yacht Services, I might get off lucky. He is coming by this week to look at it and give me advice. No matter what, bottom is getting painted. I was under the impression all the bottom gelcoat would have to be removed. Will know later this week. Gotta get it flipped now...
