Hi Cherp, thank you for that response.
Funnily enough, I did notice one advertised with Plywood decks! That surpised me, but from what you are saying, maybe they had trouble with the teak and did something interesting with ply instead.
From years of maintaining the timberwork on a Van De Stat, I'd probably pull up the teak decks if they were tired (my apologies to those to whom that is sacrledge, but I know my limits).
Having said that, a well maintained wooden boat is a thing of beauty, and I know nothing like them for causing seriously lingering looks from other boaties. Dad's Van De Stat could cause a grounding on a busy day in the bay.
