wet slipping boat in salt water for one week

[yam240sx]

always flush my motors after each day use ... would boat sitting and running in salt for a week cause any harm being unable to flush ? ..... place im looking to stay does not have a boat lift .... thanks

We do it every summer for 3 to 5 days... just use Salt Away afterwards. Some pwc spend their lifetime in saltwater and never get rinsed.....

Don't worry too much as long as you use it at least every other day. Flush engines after you are done for the week, take a decent cruise in fresh water if you can and cleat the boat thoroughly. I Did wet slipped is salt water twice last year, each time one full week with no issues.

Everyone go goes on the Bimini trip does this for a week. I've done it 3 times - no issues. You will want to plan a LOT of time to clean off all the salt once you get back. It is amazing how it gets everywhere! Saltaway will be your friend.

You will be fine.

We are considering wet slipping for two weeks and will use it every day - pull out at the end of one week and flush or just let it stay? TIA!

I would wash the underside and flush after one week.
