Re: Wiping down the boat; (THE COST EFFECTIVE WAY)

Vinegar and water works great. You still need to wax occasionally. Try this formula, best window cleaner ever. 1 cup white vinegar, 1 1/2 cups rubbing alcohol and a couple of drops of liquid dish washing soap in a spray bottle. I'm sure it will work great on your boat.
