Boat Deck Cleaning Instructions:

  1. Pre-Wetting: Thoroughly wet the area to be cleaned, ensuring it stays wet throughout the cleaning process to avoid the cleaner drying on the surface.

Cleaning Process:

  1. Starting Point: Begin at the bow and work towards the aft.
  2. Cleaning Sections:
    1. Port Side Bow: Wash the port side bow, then rinse thoroughly with fresh or salt water, ensuring all soapy water is flushed off the boat.
    2. Side Decks: Clean and rinse the side decks, directing the soapy water off the aft.
    3. Starboard Side Bow: Repeat the process on the starboard side bow, following the same rinsing procedure.
    4. Starboard Side Decks: Clean and rinse the starboard side decks.
    5. Aft Cockpit: Clean the aft cockpit and rinse off both sides and the swim platform.
    6. Swim Platform: Finish by cleaning and rinsing the swim platform, if present.

Important Tips:

  • Continuous Wetting: Always wash as much area as you can while keeping the deck wet. Do not allow the soap to dry on the deck.
  • Rinsing: Follow the soapy water flow with fresh or salt water to ensure all residue is removed, especially in areas where water might pool, such as the swim platform or aft stairs.
  • Salt Water Use: If using salt water, draw it from below the surface to avoid contaminants like diesel or petrol. Salt water acts as a great abrasive and works well, Finish with a fresh water rinse.

Additional Recommendations:

  • Cleaning Tools: Use Doodle bugs or scourer pads or a medium bristled broom.
