Jesus, I'm worn out just reading that! Our boat is badly in need of a paint job, but I'm not sure we have either the time or the energy to do a DIY job if that's what it involves!!!

If your hull is yellowy and dull, there is a brilliant product Starbrite easy on easy off which you simply brush on and then wash off - great results without too much sweat. Worth doing even if you are not painting.
