I built both a screen and solid companionway door from teak that I
bought from Wolf's Marine in Benton Harbor. They have a bin of rough
teak boards that I buy regularly for projects. I plane them down to
required thickness (3/8 for my companionway), plane the edges and glue
them together using biscuits and a exterior gorilla glue. for the
screen hatch, I routed a 1/8" groove and splined in the screen.
5 coats of epiphanes later, they both look great. My original
companionway door was plywood and we had sanded through the veneer
layers over the 47 years.
I have also heard that Lumber Liquidators is a good source for teak
flooring to use on projects.

I am needing to replace my companionway door on my 33. Does anyone
know where I might find one to purchase or suggestions on how to
replace it.
Thanks,
