A good substitute for teak is Ipea, not sure if this is correct spelling, It is mainly sold for high end decking but has very similar qualities as teak for about 1/3 the price. It is a generic term for several S. American tree species.

> Well I finally got that old stern tube hose off! And there is much rejoicing, because it was a SERIOUS pain in the side. Incidentally, there was nary a hose clamp on the outboard end. Just a lot of rubbery bedding compound or caulk or whatever. I am planning to install the new hose with two hose clamps.

I discovered that mine was loose due to worn out rivets which allowed the track to move making it difficult to get the sail to come down once it was raised. That probably explains why the old owner did not want to raise the main sail and was eager to get back to Cleveland. It seemed odd and now I know why. Oh well, live and learn.
