Sadler Starlight 35 decks

[West Coast]

My starlight is a 1993 Sadler built version. It has teak decks which have lasted very well, still solid, but are needing some minor attention. So a couple of questions:

I understand that the Starlight GRP Decks are cored, but does anyone know if they are foam cored, or balsa cored?

The teak deck is screwed down, but does anyone know if sadler, at this time of the company history, epoxy bonded the teak deck to the GRP deck? Or perhaps was something like Sikaflex used to secure the teak planks to the deck?

Cheers all
