We pulled the Bennington out of her slip this morning and brought her
home. About 5 hours later she's been washed, waxed, vinyl protected,
'toons pressure washed, and given a once, over. She's in good running
shape, as we never quit using her during the winter, it just slows to
a quick outing every 3-4 weeks.

Tomorrow she gets splashed in the morning, then we'll enjoy a few
hours out in 80+ temps.

Life IS good.

I wash and waxed the boat today. Felt like it was in the mid 80's,
sunny etc. Even with a hat on my face is a lil burnt. Every year, it
seems like it gets harder and I am more tired after getting the boat
ready for Spring.

If I was not using Zaino Bros. I think I would pay someone to do it.
The only problem with Zaino is it makes one slick surface. I have to be
careful not to apply it where someone will step.
