Greetings!

I have toured the Nautilus submarine many times and can confirm, it's a whole lot like a WW2 fleet boat, teak decking and all.

Initially I was surprised to find that while time and technology has moved on, many things on USN submarines have remained the same over the past 70 or so years. They stuff some amazing new technology into those boats but they must've gotten one heck of a deal on a supply of woodgrain formica and Mare Island Green paint right after the war. They're still working through it.
