    A good power washing and something like Boat Buddy or Grunt cleaners should do the job.

    ha ha ha ha ha . to much like hard work was hoping for something a little easier than a bucket and scrubber . but life is never that easy . so just wash the hull and use a stain remover . great thanks for that . :):):)

    Most marinas will have a power washer and will give it a going over for a few quid, if you are going to do it yourself do it the day you lift out don't leave it sitting for a few days to dry out.

    will do man cheers for your in put . the marina I had it in last year took it out and power washed the hull and parked it so i just had to wax it . but this year I will have to get it taken out myself so I was just asking what do . it,s going to have to be a bucket of water and a lot of scrubbing then a bang of grunt as I do have some then a good waxing then just wait till the boating season starts again . I might take a cruise in the mean time to kill the pain . :)
