I drove 10 hours once to buy a lake boat that had more rust and pit then any of my salt water boats combined ," I turned around empty on that one " Most people don't understand that ALL water is corrosive fresh and salt , so the fresh water guy's don't spray and clean there motor's ect, properly because they think there safe from corrosion but there NOT , go look in person and have any boat you by surveyed and inspected |

Lol, wtf we going to do...spray more water on it? The same fresh water you rinse your salt of with. That $hit is laughable. Year for year a saltwater boat will be worse in condition. There is no arguing that...just look at the prices

yes in salt water area's you can lightly spray engine bay with water let dry and then spray with CRC or w-d or any other type of product that reduces corrosion , Boesheild is a great product used on planes and marine applications |
Oh please Mike, you are delusional. I don't know what I am talking about? Oh contrar. Ironically I am looking at a saltwater boat/s and they don't even compare. And don't even get me started on the trailers.
BTW...I only need to wash my bilge once a year and I do spray it down with WD right before I put it to bed for the evil winter. |

And back to my original question, how do you totally desalt a boat? I'm talking interior and everything As for desalting- water is a universal solvent. Use lots, then wipe it down or oil/wax/grease to limit the effects of the other minerals in the water. Surfactants (soaps) help. Treat it similarly to how you'd clean a muzzleloader or AK-47 on surplus ammo (corrosive salts in powder). Soap, water, oil. Maybe a cleaner that is (very) mildly alkaline, too? |
Lol...autocorrect should have caught that ****. Touche
In my defense autocorrect did catch it, it is wrong in autocorrect. Even worse yet |
Think this topic has been beaten to death. Long story short maintenance is key regardless of where you boat fresh or salt for different reasons (salt corrosion, fresh rot). Leave it at that.

Lol...fresh rot? Water intrusion in wood causes rot. Sure freezing that $hit show does not help, but if you have water intrusion...who the hell wants the boat in the first place? Or is water intrusion ok in salt water?
Fresh water rot, Lmao. |
