i have been thinking for awhile about having a thread on maintaining our boats
there is a lot of info on building FE boats etc but not a lot on maintaining our pride and joy,and i am sure there is a lot of little tips out there that some know but could benefit more people.
here is one of my little tips.
rubber boots,as used on steering rods etc to keep water from the hull.
after a short while of use they can become dry and crack letting water in
i rub in a small amount of armour oil every now and then after a run while doing my normal after run clean up.
not all places may have armour oil brand, but it is just a rejuvenator for cars etc
its used on rubber and plastics (dashboards, bumpers) and helps protect them from becoming dry and brittle.
