Stus-List Re: Teak Sole
I had the faux teak flooring installed on my screw-in 1995 C 36 XL/kcb sole. Between the cost of the flooring (got it from Defender) and the install, it was about $2k, which was what it cost me the 1st time I replaced it with all new stuff by a boatyard about 10 years ago. I could not see the point of replacing all the 1/2-3/4 inch teak and holly sole (only the 'top-side' had a thin veneer of T on plywood) since the wood was in great shape--only the veneer was 'gone' in most places. It looks great after only 1 year (almost). If you go with this stuff, be sure and have a helper. I was initially going to do it myself but when I got the stuff and the instructions it was clear that between the size of the floor panels and the relatively quick setting glue (~ 30 minutes), there was no way I was going to try this myself and waste ~$800 (or a large part of it) getting it done correctly.

It is pretty tired. I have the old style 5 panel system that screws into the floor pan. First thought is just replace with the same ½ teak and holly plywood. I need a sheet and a half and Boulter Plywood in MA will sell a full for $285 and half for $175. Thought about the faux teak flooring but worried if I glue that over the existing panels it will cause high spots since it is not a continuous floor. Had anyone done this job and would be interested to learn of any other idea’s.

Stus-List Re: Teak Sole
Just my $.02: I would not consider replacing the teak and holly sole on a C with anything but the real thing. C are basically the Canadian-built equivalent of a Swan (only better looking). Not to put too fine a point on it: A classy yacht like a C deserves a classy interior. Plastic "flooring" just doesn't cut it as far as I'm concerned!

I doubt any vinyl plank flooring exposed to the NC sun would last more than 1 season--OTOH for those who hardly ever see their shadow, maybe not!!

I work in multifamily development (apartment buildings) and we have miles of vinyl plank installed in our projects. While it is a great product, I think it would not provide great footing at any kind or heel and it would be difficult to finish the edges precisely and aesthetically. It also 'moves' quite a bit, i.e. expands and contracts so that when it is installed one has to leave 1/4"-1/2" gap at any fixed element, like a wall or cabinets, which is covered by the wall base trim. This allows for the vinyl to expand and not push up when constrained. It is also heavy, even for our not lightweight boats.
