Avoid household products, period
I've said this before and I'll say it again here for those who aren't perusing the archives. As a seasoned boatbuilder I would avoid ALL home-use construction materials for boats, especially when it comes to the cabin sole. Application of household vinyl flooring or wood-block parquet, especially when done with household flooring cement, is, in short, a recipe for a rotten cabin sole. Unless the finished sole material (the teak) is bonded securely to the substrata (the plywood) with marine-grade laminating epoxy, the two are likely to become separated and admit water. Then, beyond your view, the sole will rot.
In my experience the number-one reason for rotten cabin soles in otherwise properly-maintained boats is that the carpet or other flooring material was allowed to trap water between the finished surface and the substrata. Happened to my boat-- that's why the guy sold it to me for less than what a new Vox amplifier would cost.
Boatbuilding conventions, such as limber holes, air circulation, epoxy glues, finishes, wood types and cabinetry joinery, are the way they are for a reason, and that reason is not to impose excessive cost that frustrates engineers and home handymen who have experience in unrelated realms. Boats are built the way they are by people who know how to build them because these conventions have been shown to be durable, seaworthy, safe and strong. I strongly advise people undertaking boat work on their own to learn about and emulate as closely as possible what was originally done by the original boatbuilders and to NOT seek 'cost-effective improvements' amongst more familiar products available at HoDePo. Please.
BTW-- a boat loses market resale value every time its owner does something to it that's less seaworthy than how it was built. I've seen this countless times-- the least salable boat is the one most heavily 'improved' by an uninformed, though enthusiastic, owner. Do it for the good of your poor boat. Please.
