Does anyone know what the thickness of the teak is from the factory for the teak deck? Is there a way to measure it definitively?

Marc,
I don't know exactly but I think it would be about 7mm. |

take out a little piece of sikaflex and you can measured it, just look out that you me&sured on the top of the bounding glue who is on the top of the GRP deck.
When I replaced the sikaflex after 10 years ( build 2010) there only left 5mm Max and 4 mm at the border of the corners.

I never have sand the teak in de past 10 years.
Only once lest year when I replaced the caulking The sh…t SIKAFLEX were becoming sticky. There is a topic about this on the forum. When you do a search you will find it.
