This entomologist's site mentions glue boards as a way to trap them.
(See the pictures). Might be a good idea in the nooks and crannies
spiders love on your boats. My pest control man says spiders are the
hardest thing to kill with pesticides. You just about have to drown them
in it.

According to a doctor whom I know, one of the major problems with spider
bites is chemical poisoning as the bite typically contains a large amount of
pesticide. Spiders are constantly eating other critters that have consumed
pesticides and have a ton of it in their system as well as being immune to
it. He said that most doctors only treat the bite with anti-venom serums
whereas they should also be treating it as a poison/toxic puncture wound.
