Now, in an attempt to bring this back on topic, I have a question
for the group. A friend insists that I wash and wax my boat while
before I re-launch it for the season. How necessary is that? Will
it rot if I don't?

I wash, polish and wax my boat before it is splashed for the season.
I also wash and wax the boat most every time I take it out from mid
June to September (when the water is warm enough for me to jump in
at a shallow sandy area). If I cannot get in the water I wash the
boat at the dock before taking it out.

I may be compulsive/obsessive but I like my boat to look clean when
I take it out, even for fishing. ;-)


Yeah, my friend is like that, too. What I want to know, though, is
whether or not it's necessary to the well-being of the boat.


It will help protect the gel coat, but if you keep your boat at a
marina with the same side to the sun all the time, you will get fading
no matter what you do.

But the gel coat will be in good shape.


Thanks.
