From time to time a slight algae or slime forms
on all vessels. The bottom painted portion of
the hull can be wiped off with a coarse turkish
towel or a piece of old rug while the boat is in
the water. Do not use a stiff or abrasive material
to clean the bottom paint.
The bottom paint should be inspected annually. If
it needs repainting consult your Sea Ray
®
dealer.

If permanently moored or docked in salt water
or fresh water, your boat will collect marine
growth on its bottom. This will detract from the
boat’s beauty and greatly affect its
performance. There are two methods of
preventing this:
• Periodically haul the boat out of the water
and scrub the bottom with a bristle brush
and a solution of soap and water.
• Paint the hull below the waterline with a
good grade of antifouling paint.
DO NOT
paint the engine drive surfaces.
NOTE: There are EPA regulations regarding
bottom paint application. Consult your Sea
Ray
®
dealer for proper application methods.
One can extend the life of white or colored gelcoat
by following Sea Ray’s
®
recommended
maintenance instructions. 3M Ultra Performance
paste wax or an equivalent marine grade paste wax
will help maintain the luster of the original gelcoat.

Boats should be rotated in a slip as often as they
are waxed. This will eliminate too much ultra violet
exposure and degradation to occur on only one side
of the boat.

Although gelcoat and painted surfaces are resistant
to deep stains, a need for cleaning will occasionally
arise. But, the use of some common cleaning agents
will permanently discolor or otherwise damage the
finish on your boat.
• Do not use abrasive porcelain-cleaning
powders. These are too abrasive and contain
chlorine and ammonia, either of which will
permanently discolor gelcoat and paint.
• Never use nail polish remover (acetone) or any
ketone solvents.
• Use diluted household detergents to remove
surface soil and stains. Before using a given
brand, check to make sure it contains no
chlorine or ammonia.
• Alcohol can be used to remove difficult stains.
But it must be promptly washed off with mild
detergent and water.
• Minor scratches and deeper stains that do not
penetrate the gelcoat may be removed by light
sanding and buffing.
