I miss washing and detailing the boat :(boatwash2.jpgboatwash.jpg
 
@DJMattyT at first I thought you were spraying water on your boat and then watching it turn into ice - lol

But you did get me corious - what are you spraying on your boat? It looks like you just soap and rinse, is that what I am seeing ?
 
Looks like a Chemical Guys Foam Cannon. That's also what I use (you can also substitute salt away for the soap - that's what I did after Bimini last year)

Exactly it! I love chemical guys but even love Adams Polishes better.

Never heard of this, do you put your choice of soap in it or do these Chem guys have a soap/polish that you use with it?

I use a chemical guys soap with it but you don't need to. Ive used Adams Polishes shampoo and use that for everything else though. They say Shampoo soap works the best because it's thicker and has more suds but I've also used regular "turtle wax ice" and it was fine. image.jpegimage.jpeg
 
Well I begged everyone to go on the boat today but no one wanted to so some friends and I took the quads out instead and here is one of them stuck is this close enough to boating.

Haven't been on the forum in a while and was just going through my videos last week dreaming of summer. Here is one from 2014

 
Does this count as boating? Air was warm today, but DANG that water was cold!!!! Motivation to stay onboard. Feb 20th, earliest we've ever been in the water, even if only to our calves.
