clumsy moment, lost my balance and fell on the cockpit table.  Edson table with drink holders in the mount.  What is the best glue to use on teak?  Assume I need to use some rubbing alcohol to remove any oil before I glue and clamp.

Maybe old school these days, but I vote for Resorcinol, if the gap is tight. If you need filler, then go with West G-Flex

Ken : I'd use lacquer thinner to clean the break and then some Epoxy to glue it together,
Resorcinol is a great teak glue, but as I remember it is purple.

One man's purple is another man's burgundy. :? It is dark. However on teak in a tight joint it almost looks like a grain line. May not be ideal for this situation.
