I know it's recommended to wait before waxing a freshly painted car. What is the recommendation of time on gel coat before you wax/seal it on a new boat?

New boat I am thinking you would not have to wait.
Wax away.
I wax all my new boats the first week and every month after that .
Never hurts to wax a boat
Thanks for the answers. Wasn't sure what the cure time was.
When I get a new boat, I strip it immediately with water and Dawn dish soap, then apply two coats of Pro Tec sealant with a day between coats.

Before you start on your boat make sure you are all practiced up.
I will step up and allow you to hone your waxing skills on my boat and truck...
The product has a natural wax coating on it when it is demolded. It’s not like a paint that dries and is releasing solvents to harden, the gelcoat is a molecular cure and is hardened almost fully when pulled from the mold. There is a slight amount of release over time, though it’s extremely small.
