Hi,
We have a jetty on a saltwater creek at the back of our house and I'm wondering if its safe to leave a fibreglass boat tied up to it for a few days, maybe up to a week while using it regularly while on vacation (or holiday, I'm in Australia). The boat isn't antifoulded and of course I'll be flushing the motor and hosing down after each use. Normally the boat will be kept dry stored at a marina, but I didn't want to do damage by leaving it in the water for too long, also the creek is tidal with a muddy bottom so I guess the boat will be partly resting on the bottom a few hours each day.
Thanks for any advice!
