Part of the beauty of a yacht is seeing the "real" woodwork kept in good shape. There is no substitute to gleaming varnished teak or mahogany! I've seen teak painted over with white polyurethane, in order to "avoid" the work of keeping it looking bright, and this is effective, but sad too because it hides one of the beautiful elements of a yacht.
In my opinion, teak decks can be maintained "looking brown" but "looking white" is a whole lot easier and the teak really doesn't mind it at all. If you have the time and the crew to keep it looking brown, that's great, but otherwise, letting it go white is fine, in my humble opinion.
