Ralph,





I'm one of those glass boat owners who always sets up a couple of small
folding stools and washes his boat before putting it back on top of my car.





The boat can handle the salt water, it's my car that I worry about. Just don't
want a lot of salt water dripping on my car and causing the roof to rust,
fade, or whatever.





The boat itself looks good with just a quick spray of 303.

  I always see fiberglass kayak owners washing their boats every chance they


  get, i.e. when a hose is handy.  And I thought it was overkill.  Your


  comments confirm this.  Can't see what harm saltwater can do.
