This Product saved us HUNDREDS $$$ (Ep 179)

Fri, 03 Apr 2026 22:30:06 +0000

The transformation is unreal… and honestly, the teak on our sailboat turned out SO GOOD. And the best part? We saved HUNDREDS of dollars doing it ourselves.

In this episode, we are cleaning the teak on our sailboat which also happens to be our full time home, a sailboat named 'Emma James'. We are tackling everything from the aft bench seat, dolphin seats, and rear deck seat, to the shower floor and trims.

Over time, teak can go grey, patchy, and tired… but instead of paying a tradie hundreds of dollars, we decided to try the JustTeak system and do it ourselves.

And the results?
You’ll have to see the before and after to believe it.
