I try to do it weekly....takes about 10 minutes to just swim around the boat and wipe the crud off.

We've done that for many years and it seems to do the trick.

That's what my buddy, where our boat will be slipped, says the owner of another boat in one of his slips does. They just go out to a shallow, sandy spot on the lake, throw the hook out, and give the bottom a good brushing several times a season, and that's all that's required.

Of course: Near the end of the season, when the water starts to cool down, I imagine that could become a chilly task

I went to my local marina to look for zing and they told me it is now called ZAPP. I don't know if it's the same or not but it works good. It took all the brown junk off my boat with some minor scrubbing.
