That's why you're supposed to perform regular MAINTENANCE..so you catch
these things before they happen.


I'd rather do it right the first time, thank you very much.

Because I can not afford my dream aluminum boat.
And because I like steel, I know how to maintain steel, and I will
crush any plastic boat that runs into me. Why do you sail inferior
plastic that prove to blisters and much more costly to maintain?

Have had 3 fiberglass boats. No blisters. And haven't found them =
difficult to maintain at all. And they don't look like rust buckets.

Ive had 4 fiberglass boats, still have one. RedCloud will outlast all
of them.
I think you have seen pictures of RedCloud and Ill bet you anything
you have never seen any rust on my boat.......not one speck. Better
get to polishing that fading plastic boat of yours you only have 4
months to get it done
before you can use it for a few weeks when the ice thaws. I be out
sailing before sunrise, going to drag the bay on one tack, need to
stock up the fridge with shrimp for the outdoor BBQ party tommorrow
night.

Actually, 3 and ut only takes us a day...you forget that in these =
northern climes we do not get the sun damage and fade to our glass boats =
that you do down there...I've seen what Florida boats look like when =
they haven't been taken care of....but then, if the same lack of care =
was applied to your own veseel, you would have a rust tuv. So...if =
you're a bad boat owner, you're going to have a bad looking boat....

Neglect is neglect, whether north or south. It just takes a little longer
up here.
