cp, Refinishing the mahogany depends on how bad it is. Post some pictures and I can tell if it will need to go to bare wood or not. Any signs of rot or soft spots where the mahogany touches the fiberglass?
Whatever it needs, don't let anyone talk you into using a polyurethane or even worst a automotive type clear coat on it. Top of the line marine spar varnish is needed to hold up to the moisture changes a wood boat sees. Welcome to this great site. |

Welcome!
I used to own the Burgundy Paragon, beautiful boats, still miss that one. On the teak the procedure is the same as your swim deck, clean and then oil, will make things a bit slick however. Sure some of the other guy's will help out with the Mahogany, never had to do ours. Good luck and get that boat in the Diaries!! PS, ours was never a trailer queen either, skied, footed and everything else behind it from day 1!! |

I'm glad to see that they're not all trailer queens. Beautiful boats & I'd imagine they look even better IN the water...though i just have to imagine, b/c all I've ever seen are trailer queens

Hi, I Have a 93 paragon that needs refinishing. Looking for some advice on how to refinish the Mahogany deck and teak floor - which products to use, procedure etc. Boat is dark green fiberglass with dark green leather seating.
Thanks in advance! |
