What would you guys recommend for the premium cleaner/wax for the gel coat?

 

[swatski]

I LOVE Klasse, but any quality wax will do. I think "cleaner" waxes are so much easier to apply and buff, don't need any tools like orbital polisher or anything if you don't have it.
The Klasse (all-in-one) is the easiest to apply of all I tried. It also does not leave white smudges on the trim and plastic, even glass. The thing is so easy to work with. I've used Meguires Flagship which is fine. But I have a big container of it which I may never finish since I started using Klasse. Really hard to go back...

I got mine from Overton's but sure that Amazon has them also. Just be sure you get the 4" version. Happy boating !!

Thanks for the advise everyone! Glad to be a part of the Jet Boat Club! Taking the boat out today for the first time besides the sea trial.

I would highly recommend a ceramic coating before putting in salt. Wax is fine but the ceramic will last so much longer and you can wax over it.

Enjoy your new boat!!! Looks sweet!

Just picked her up today!! Going out tomorrow morning to burn some fuel!

That's a good looking boat!

I live on Sigsbee (NAS Key West housing) and from the ramp to Jewfish Basin it's less than 7 miles and takes me about 15 min. Gorgeous water. Smooth sand bars. Just have to remember there is some "skinny water" down here. Still haven't gone all the way to Snipes or Marvin after finding the Basin

What’s up man, I’m at the Campground on Sigsbee. We go to Snipe...Mud Key...Jewfish...Boca Grande all the time...just gotta have good track lines in that back country. Boca Grande is pretty easy to go out to, it’s just far. We have three of us here that have Jet Boats...4 now including you. Still loving mine.

This place is great for jet boats! I see 4 of us in storage at Sigsbee against the fence now.
I like our little Marina and ramp and how easy it is to get out there. I have the NOAA charts and Google satellite view that I have used to find spots and routes. Been marking "bubba sticks" when I come across them since the locals know best! When you go to Snipe and Marvin do you shoot straight across past Jewfish Basin or go out to the Gulf? Am thinking to go check those out next since I've done the Basin the last 3 weekends

Just got approved for a brand new 2018 AR240, space blue. I’ve been lurking around this forum for years hoping I would become one of the club someday. Well it’s here!! Picking her up on Saturday morning! Super excited! No more being jealous of all you folks. I’ve definitely learned a lot about these boats through this forum and can’t wait to possibly meet some of you all. That Bimini fling looks awesome!

I live here in Cudjoe and will be doing the Bimini trip for the third time this July. you can call me for any information you may need. I'm bringing a 242 limited S and have other friends coming-954-598-3812
