Wax helps. Taiwan trawler?


Albin 33. Looks similar to a CHB 34. I think it's a far better boat.

I just clean them and hit them with a piece of gray scotch brite. They
have a dull surface of very good stainless, just not ever gonna stay shiny.

And some battles aren't worth fighting.

My boat has 37 Stainless Steel stanchions. I took one down to the shop
and had the metal polishing guys do a really good job to see how it
would look.

It looked great for a while. 6 months later you couldn't tell which one
was polished.

Did you wax it?

Nope Where were you when I did this? lol

I've always like Albins. Is the manufacturer still in business? Hope so.

Nice looking boat. Single engine or twins?
