Kerosene. Be careful. Don't let it drip into the water or you will have
visitors.
Not recommended.....

Bob wasn't interested in prepping his boat properly, so he needs to
cheat to give the hull a temporary shine.
Modern conservatism.
pretty much the case. just wonder how he figures it makes the rich
richer

Wow. two dumb statements in a row. Seriously Bobby, Waxing a boat in the
water is hard enough but compounding?
that's going to take a "liberal" amount of elbow grease. You really need
to get your back into it. Are you really planning on standing in water
with an electric buffer in hand?
Hope everything works out for you.

The comment was based on your interest in cheating. A true
conservative would find a way to secure the vessel so a proper job
could be done. I've done plenty of compounding while the boat is
docked. Just a matter of positioning it in a way that the vessel is
held fast. The rest depends on muscles and leverage.

Nah. I always have my boats in showroom condition, both mechanically and
cosmetically prior to launch. Good planning reduces or eliminates the
need to do the sort of maintenance you speak of. Any respectable marina
would throw out any boat owner who would compound his boat while other
boaters were trying to enjoy their summer dockage.

I take it you own a trailer boat or one that comes out during winter?
You seem unaware that some boats remain in the water all year.

It's just the sort of narrow view I'd expect from whoever you are
today.

Bob's boat spends the winters on the hard, where that sort of
maintenance should be done. Nothing like having a memorial day picnic on
the docks while some thoughtless asshole is running a grinder/buffer a
couple of boats down. Are you that thoughtless fleabagger asshole?

Feeble deflection attempt. We were talking about how I compound the
boat while in the water, not Bob's.

If you were close by, I'd be certain to run my polisher whenever you
were present. Nothing like a gleaming shine on the boat to keep the
neighborhood happy.

Who in the **** has a Memorial Day picnic on a dock unless the dock is
on your own property? You sound water rat low lifes.

I don't "party" with a bunch of haphazard low lifes on a dock. I have
friends and family and we gather in houses, backyards, boats or
beaches together.

We're not among you sewer rats who frequent a dock in hopes of finding
other vermin with which to play.

Why don't you go to Harry's new group and trash other people's choice in

Why are you here? There's a fine group of folks who you can harass at
rec.paddletoys. You can edify all on how you stroke (yourself).
