I want to refinish the teak in the companion-way on my C-22. Much of the surface is worn and rough. What is the best procedure to prepare for refinishing and what product should I use to coat/seal/varnish or whatever so it will be protected and look good?
Also, I have read about the C-22 having a "cooler" that doubles as a companion-way step. Is this a special made cooler just for the C-22 or will something else do? Are there any pictures out there that show the original cooler or ice chest?
Six more weeks and I can put my boat in the water here in central Kansas. Can't wait to sail her for the first time.
Refinishing Teak and Original Cooler/Step on C-22

There is much information available on refinishing just google "refinish teak".
My 22 had a teak step that sat on cleats between the seats, I removed it and used a cooler there to save space. I had to shop to find a cooler that fit and it was real hard on the cooler top to have my fat a-- stepping down on it. I can send you a photo of the teak step if you want.
