get a five gallon pale and fill it with 50% vinegar and 50% bleach and start washing. (no power washer needed.) you will be happy at how easy and effortless this little task will be. 30 min. of your time and that gel will look very nice and it won't hurt the paint. we use to use this a lot down in fl when detailing boats that sat for some time, it takes sap right off as well. good luck with it

Bad idea mixing bleach and vinegar, very toxic gas is released. Read up on that one.

You can really Frick up things with a pressure washer if you don't know what your doing ..... is the windshield stainless or painted?

Thanks for the heads up, windshield is stainless

you are outside in the open air, not sure the fumes are going to get to you. like i said, we would use this formula all the time, never had a bad day.. it is by far the easiest way to clean this rig and get the job done in a small amount of time.

Pay the money and have the boat cleaned up, take a bunch of photos and re-post with a little more aggressive asking price. She will sell...

I would rather have someone else do the cleaning :)

There is some clearcoat peel on the front deck and upper hull sides.

Have to leave town for few days tomorrow, but few guys are interested and sending their local friends to check it out. Here are some pics taken today showing what is the current condition. Offers are welcome, thank you

stringer bell 01-20-2014 08:39 PM

LOL no water in the cabin

It's a shame that a $80 tarp could have prevented 90% of that damage.

Pretty amazing that grass is growing out of the sun deck!
