Bob,

Thanks for the recommendation, Bob.  Your  impression after having your 
upcoming outing on the boat will be helpful  too.  I'm curious what sprayer you 
use.  Would a hand sprayer  work?

Would I enjoy seeing you all in  Florida!

>Just wanted to share something  I tried last week.  I always used "mean 
green" to clean my R-22.   Not the stuff you smoke, but the stuff they sell at 
Dollar  General.   Used to buy the concentrate and mix it with water in a  
tank sprayer and clean the boat with it.  It used to be fine until I  moved 
to the S. Georgia coast and when I left the boat in or out of the water  for 
a couple of weeks it would be covered with dirt and mildew.  The mean  
green only worked if I scrubbed it with an abrasive sponge.  Used to kick  my 
ass between having to scrub and fight off the sand gnats.  It was a  losing 
battle and the boat was really getting worse and worse and scrubbing it  was 
getting old.

he used to clean the  fancy houses at the Ford Plantation in Richmond Hill.  
I bought a small  container of the concentrate, mixed it with bleach as per 
the instructions and  used the same tank sprayer to apply it to the 
sailboat.  The boat was a  huge mess since it sat in the boat yard uncovered from 
May until  September.

while and had the sponge and  bucket ready.  It was amazing - all the dirt 
and mildew came off on its  own - all I had to do was rinse.  Did not have to 
pick up a sponge and I  called Sheila to show her how clean the boat looked. 
 She was  amazed.  I am really glad to have found this because when I keep 
the boat  in the water at the Shrimp Docks it gets filthy and I have had no 
easy way to  clean it.  This Jomax cleaned spots where I had not been able 
to reach  before and it sparkled.

>No, I am not  trying to sell Jomax - this is not an infomercial.  I am 
just sharing  what I consider an amazing new finding in how to clean your boat 
without much  effort.

>After the Jomax treatment, I gave it  a quick Woody Wax treatment and I am 
ready for the next trip next week:   will it be Punta Gorda, Gulfport, 
Hartwell or Hilton Head?  Not sure yet  - it is weather dependent, but will let 
you know.
