I don't think this is always the case. I have taken a freshly-waxed
sailboat down the ICW quite a few times, and by about Daytona the "ICW
Mustache" was pretty obvious.

So have I, and had a complete absence of "mustache." Not to just be
argumentative, I think it varies from season to season and certainly
some kinds of wax are better than others. We've had very good results
with plain old 3M Marine wax... a year or so free of tannin stain.
