Scrubbed everything with Clorox 2 and let dry. Had to scrub more than once to get the finished look I wanted. When I got the look I wanted when completely dry then I put three to four coats of Teak Oil on it. Took some time but got it the way I wanted it. Lot of hard work, and NO the clorox2 didn't stain the carpet at all.

When you can't make them see the light, make them feel the heat.

Thanks for the tip Clorox 2 and a scub brush will be on my shopping list. I was looking at 2 part cleaners and restorers, but they want a lot for such small bottles. thanks again.
Landlocked! Yes, but that won't deter me from trying to find my way out to sea.

I just used a small scrub brush and a toothbrush in real tight area's. Nothing real special. The real trick was having the patience to let it dry completely to see if I had the even color I wanted. Getting those water stains out was a PITA!!!!! Of course now I have the interior torn apart again ripping out the water tanks. Just another thing on the list! Unepected list not the planned one!!

I am about to start something along the same lines and have looked around quite a bit and found wipe on poly from minwax to be easy to use and provides a nice satin look without the tacky feeling left behind by teak oils.
I removed and sanded a grab handle and followed the directions on the can and the result was great. Nice even finish and seems very durable.
