Hey guys,
I am going to be applying bottom paint to my boat in the spring (was gonna do fall, but it got cold here...quick). This will be the first time this boat has gotten paint aside from at the factory (2004 Maxum SR3 1800). I know I will need to prep the hull to paint such as clean and sand, primer and paint. So my question is, is it worth it for me to scrub it down before putting it away for the winter? I usually clean it with toilet bowl cleaner, scrub brush and hose to get off all the water stains but if I'm going to be doing it again in the spring and also sanding, is it worth the effort?
