Toerail Sanding

Kiriwina has teak decks, toerails, grab rails, cockpit trim and seating. Most of which is badly weathered. Firstly the wood must be cleaned then sanded down to a smoothish finish to remove weather grooves and finally sealed with Endeavour Priming Oil.
I spend all day Friday (21st) and all day Saturday (22nd) doing this. The toerails looked good when I finished.
The photo shows a sanded and non sanded section on the stern toerail. If teak is not cared for weather erodes softer portions of the wood leaving the surface badly ridged.
