Andrei... Thanks for the compliment on "Seranita". To answer your question, I re-cut new companionway hatchboards from a 4' x 8' piece of marine teak plywood. I simply used the old hatches as a template. Some hardwood vendors will sell you a smaller piece which you should inquire about since the 4'x8' will leave you quite a bit. Of course, you can use the left over for other projects. I prefer Cetol to varnish now that they have come out with their "natural teak" color. I use three coats of "natural teak", sanding lightly between coats, and then 3 coats of Cetol "High Gloss", again, sanding lightly between coats. The results are great. If you look on the Trailer Sailor forum at my post for a Bayfield 25 that I am selling, you will see a photo of the Bowsprit that has fresh Cetol. I think all would agree, that it looks amazing and very traditional.
Enjoy...
