    Water line

    I have a 518 on a tandem trailer. Boat is white. Question is how do y’all keep it clean especially behind the fenders that cover most of the back half. Can wipe down every time but looks bad in the water. Getting to Water line behind fenders is a problem. What have y’all found to solve this.

    I’d have to go back a year or so in forum search to find this, but there is a household cleaning pad (Swiffer?) on a flexible handle that will fit in between. It has a soft surface and is thin enough to slide through. Otherwise, if I think of it, I reach down with a sponge in hand when waiting to load the boat and rub lightly in that area. Doesn’t take much. If someone has a picture of that item I mentioned above, maybe they will post.

    I have a small hand towel in the boat that I use for this. I got in the habit of giving both sides in that area a quick wipe right before I load back on trailer.

    Swiffer is a good idea. I spray mine with a product by Booyah, just spray, wait a minute, and wash off. Had a white Skeeter and it worked great.

    I use a toilet scrubber. The kind with the disposable pads. Works great---got the soap and all imbedded in the pDS.
