Boston Whaler

Congrats on your whaler purchase.  It is a fantastic boat!!!  For cleaning cushions check out my link below.  

I use to have a marine cleaning business, and I can tell you in my opinion one of the best products on the market is: knights marine spray nine.  This is powerful stuff.  It will clean the close nit non-skid on the whaler.  I keep 3 gallons of this stuff on hand all the time.  It cleans everything.  Use plenty of water too!  You can dilute It if you want, but I usually use it without.  Get yourself a few scrub brushes.  a small hand held one, and a long handled one with both a soft head and a stiff head.  https://shurhold.com/collections/shurhold-system-nested makes a great product for this.  

For wax I use either 3m cleaner wax, or starbrite MaxiWax (cleaner wax). no need to compound anything unless you are seeing white chalky haze. Get yourself both a bag of cotton towels and microfiber towels.  If you use a buffer, make sure you don't not have the setting to high, or you will burn the wax into the gelcoat.    Anymore questions just hit me back.    p.s. don't forget your safety equip on the boat.  https://themarineminute.com/the-safe-boater/
