Oh to be in the warm sun. But then you have that crappy water eating up all your nice work. And up here it's colder than $%^# but there is nothing in the water that can eat you. I'll stick it out and visit your space in the winter.

That's why I'm a trailer sailor. Extract the boat from that corrosive stew when yer done with it! Well it ain't really all that bad, but it pays to flush twice ...

I would never leave one in the water for more than a day or two down here. Well, mebbe if'n I could afford it ...  Anyway. That Topaz I hung the enclosure on today has only been in the water a few weeks. Bottom's already gettin furry. Spite the new paint.

use to have a 45 Sportfish , and would pull it twice a year to de-junk the bottom ...like you said , to a good flush/wash job and you will be just fine ..nice work ..
