That might have been me. I spent an ungodly amount of time and money
trying to match the stain during my 'U-shaped Galley project'
<http://www.wbryant.com/StellaBoat/Projects/galley/u_shape/usblues.htm>
Later on, I just said the heck with it and took good teak or veneer and
put many coats of Minwax interior varnish on it. For a year or two it
didn't match, but it's odd how interior varnish ages. I honestly can't
tell the difference between the varnish work I did ten years ago and the
original 35 year old finish. The stuff I got all fussy about doesn't
match.
Just varnish it and go sailing.

A lister (whose name I've lost) posted this hard-won formula a few years
ago. I have used it several times, and its a perfect match to the factory
finish (which is definitely a warm brown stain) on my 1980 30-1.
Minwax Wood Finish (Stain) 1 part Provincial (211) 2 parts
Golden Pecan (245) 2 parts Colonial Maple (223)
