Waxing for seniors

[gypsy spirit]

Now admirals tell your skippers
Not to do what I have done
Don't go to the car wash to wash and wax your boat.
Actually the wash was worth the trip,
But the wax was disappointing. Have to find a young girl.

They are attracted to shiny objects. Try that.
I expected you'd be less than pleased with car wash wax

The way most seniors do it is that they pay someone else to do it. Not even grandkids work for free nowadays.

As an ease of use vs durability compromise I've been very happy using Mothers California gold, which is a synthetic wax. very easy to apply and easily lasts a full season for me.

i don't wax. it adds drag to the wetted surfaces, plus i can't see the hull from the helm.

I see the reflection in the smiles and waves of passers by.

It's always nice when people compliment the effort.

Russ, Is that when your doing 60 on the highway headed for the lake? It might be shock and awe as they see that "canary yellow" boat flashing past them...

It does get a lot of attention, both on the water and off.
