In short, there are no reliable sources that I have found. There can be a
myriad of opinions on this subject and there are a myriad of wives tales.
Your difficulty is determining what is true and applicable in YOUR case
and
what is not. However, there are certain guidlines that should always be
observed. In order to give advise, you must be much more explicit. The
following information would be very helpful:
Describe the current deck construction.
What is the hull material?
What is the observed faults with the deck now?
How old is the deck?
How thick is the teak planking?
How wide are the planks?
What caulking material has been used?
Come back with those answers and we can have a better discussion.
