Tips On Ship Cleaning For Your Hobby Boat

If you’re lucky enough to have a hobby boat that you can use to travel up and down your local river or even out into the North Sea, you’ll want to keep it in good shape! Cleaning your boat regularly will not only keep it looking fresh but also extend its life and keep it working efficiently. Here, we provide just a few tips and tricks on cleaning your hobby boat.

The Importance Of Cleaning Your Boat

If you have a boat, it’s essential that you keep it clean and in good condition. Doing so can ensure that you spot any maintenance issues before they get out of hand as well as helping stop the spread of aquatic pests in our rivers. If you sail out to sea, you should regularly clean your boat to remove salt crystals which can speed up wear and tear.

How Often Should You Clean Your Boat

It’s advised that you should clean your boat once every three months or so to keep it in the best possible condition. This will help to increase the lifespan of your boat and save you money in the long run.

What You Need To Clean

You should clean your hull, the main body of your boat as well as the tubes, trailer and any equipment you use. Moreover, you should also regularly have the engine of your boat looked over, just as you would your car.

Tackling Your Fuel Tank

Finally, it’s essential to ensure that your fuel tank is clean to avoid any fuel pumping issues as well as fuel efficiency. Checking for sediment every two years or so should help to protect your tank. Having the professionals look at your fuel tank every so often should help you keep it in the best possible condition.
