Washing the hull

[TortugaR31]

Good morning. We previously owned a blue-hulled sailboat and used a microfiber mitt to wash the salt and water spots off of the hull. We are new to Ranger Tug ownership and are wondering what other folks use to keep their blue hulls looking shiny and new after a day on the water.

I do a rinse with Salt-Away after every cruise. Twice a year I wash the boat with boat soap, and once a year I use paste wax.

Hi Brad. Thank you for the recommendation. Is it a touchless process meaning you don't have to use a brush or mitt to get the hull completely clean?

The salt away rinse and boat soap wash are brushless using a spray adapter attached to a hose, but the wax requires a mitt or microfiber cloth applicator.

This. Salt away is great and I do the exact same thing. I wash with Boat soap/wax a little more often. This is the hose attachment Brad's talking about.
