G Series Teak Platform

[EcuNance]

Ever since attending the boat show last year and deciding to order a new Nautique G, I always loved the look of teak on the Mastercrafts. A few boards later, some elbow grease and I now have the best of both worlds. I love the way the platform turned out and looks against my black G!

That looks really good ECU. I'm afraid that might be painful on the knees for a portly gentleman like myself crawling out of the water. Good job though!

Really like this. I wish Nautique still offered a teak platform as an option. I had one on my 99 Air and even though it was some maintenance, it was still worth it.

Thanks guys! I had some great feedback on Facebook and love doing this type of work. I am actually building 2 more for other G owners now. Love the look and feel!

Teak = classy
if you don't mind me asking how much did it end up costing you? I know teak is hard to come by and expensive

Nice work! Looks factory!

Looks amazing! Great work! I Miss the teak platform from my old SANTE.

Can I ask where you purchased the wood from? Somewhere local? Or online? How did you calculate how much material to buy? Did you just use the original platform as a template?

thanks

Have you ever heard of Iroko? http://www.wood-database.com/iroko/ It is the African version of Teak and has basically all of the same properties, but usually considerably less. Sometimes you can even find it in a greyer color which could be pretty cool. I don't know the availability of it in certain areas but it might be worth looking into if you plan on doing much of it.

Beautiful job! That looks amazing.

I wish it were an option as well. Looks great, ECU!
