Teak Decks on a Passport

I've heard folks complain about them leaking. Since I'm boat shopping
I was wondering if I should even consider a Passport since it has teak
decks.
I also noticed most of them have a VW Pathfinder engine which I've
never heard of before.
Does anyone have any experience with Passport yachts even if not
related to the teak decks? Any info on the Passport would be
appreciated.
The boats look nice but I'm wondering if they are a maintenance
nightmare.
A friend had a Passport 37 that did turn into a nightmare structural
problem.. However, it may have been pre-existing damage that his
surveyor failed to catch when he bought it.
He was never able to relate it to any incident when he owned it, and
thus he was stuck. The survey problem, if that is what it was, arises
because you have to take apart some of the interior joinery(very nice
looking, BTW) to see the structure at all.

one win an election by a negative 600,000 votes.
