Not maintenance...appearance products (cleaners/waxes)
I added a buffer to my appearance costs. Probably should have used depreciation as the cost. What's
the life span of a buffer?

Duh, Justine. He didn't ask anything about winterizing or spring prep.
The $20.00 covered a resin repair kit after I gouged the hull trying to load my boat with 43 km side winds on the Mira River last fall...and the 440.00 covers waxes and cleaning solution for the hull.

BTW..spring prep costs me diddly but i do pay heavily for winterization due to the new motor warranty. I don't want to give them any excuses if problems arise.
