Mike is correct. I spent a large number of boat bucks having a proper teak cockpit grate built for Honey our 39TM . The 3 piece grate looked fantastic and fit perfectly (for what it cost it should have) but after 2 years of having to remove it clean the cockpit sole, watching chafe the paint and collect every single item that was dropped, I said to hell with it and it looks great sitting in our sail locker.
Also, it was uncomfortable on the feet of our guests and race crew that choose to go barefooted These grates are best left for the wooden boat guys.
