Hi, I'm Ches Rainer welcome to Expert Village. Today we are going to be talking about some techniques used to clean a fiberglass boat. In this step we are going to go over how to wash down the boat. I like to wash down the boat first so that way it gets any dirt or grim off the boat. Cause you definitely don't want to scratch the surface especially on a really high end boat like this one. So we are going to wash the boat down first and then we will go through the other steps. What you want to do is make sure you get the stains with some fresh water cause that is definitely going to be corroding on the boat like this in salt water environment. Any bird droppings you want to try to get those, so you have to scrub those down later and basically getting the entire boat good and wet. That way it gets anything that's going to be abrasive off any sand. Definitely with washing your boat you want to get to your maintenance like every week or two weeks to clean the boat. Especially just a spray down cause the rinse down is going to keep your stainless from corroding right away and if it's clean it's going to be easier to clean next time. So you definitely want to keep up on your maintenance if you let it slip like this boat, then it's going to be twice as much work for you.
