Its sort of fishing related . Does anyone know of or can you recommend some one local that can clean the bottom of my fiberglass boat while I have it on my skid. A simple wipe on rinse off solution (which i will provide) I just need someone to do it. I thank you in advance for any help.

Sorry I don't know anyone who could do that, but could I ask what cleaner you'll be using?
I left my boat in the water in the back of Whiteley Covefor only Two Weeks and had a 1/4" of green slime and freaking little barnacles all over it.! We blasted the majority of it all off with a power washer, but the hull stains and some of the barnacles are still there.
Picked up some On and Off today, gonna get my son and his friend to help me do it cuz reading the label scares me!

I use mary kates on off hull and bottom cleaner it is amazing stuff. For the tougher stains a second application may be necessary. And yes gloves and eye protection are highly recommended using care not to sling it around when applying as it will blister your skin before you realize it is on you. water neutralizes it quickly.

Used this for 20 years on all of my white hulls. works really good and you can
put it in a pump sprayer. As far as someone doing it for you. Any one can spray it on.

I have a small shop vac, but if I were to do it again, I'd probably get this bucket head from Home Depot. I already have the buckets on the boat.
