I think I actually posted a similar thread before i put my boat in last year....
Last Season I decided to get a dock at our local lake and leave it down there as opposed to trailoring everytime. Due to my crazy work schedule in the summer I find this to be the only way to get the most out of my boat in the summer. In the begining this was no problem I just pulled the boat out every other week and gave it a good scrub. Towards the end of the year I got a little lazy and got quite a bit of build up on the bottom. I left it be because it was so close to the end of the season. Everything came off great with the help of a hoist and and some serious cleaning. when all the junk was on the bottom of the boat I couldn't get my perfect pass to read the right speed at all. Im assuming that all the build up on the bottom restricted the spinner to move accurately. Im praying that now that its back to new again I wont have any problems with the MPH reading correct.
I know that a lot of boaters put that paint on the bottom of there boat. is this a big "no no" for wakeboard boats? My boat is all white and i really don't want to put that paint from the waterline down on it but our lake is very dirty and i can't justify the payment if I dont leave it there. Anybody else leave there boats in and have issues?
any comments appreciated
