I also suggest you wash that boat by hand each time you use it, to get
rid of the salt and to check the hull for damage. Let the marina
operator know you are doing it to examine the hull.

Good luck.


First Congrats!

I second Harry's comments about washing to remove salt, you should flush
the engine(s) each time it's hauled, or if the marina has a flush tank, use
it. It's amazing just how much wear, tear & corrosion damage a dry storage
marina can put on your beautiful new boat. A lot of that damage can be
started by drippage when a wet salty boat gets put above you, so try for a
top bunk, or a bunk with no upper neighbor.

Happy & safe boating!
