Thank you Beth. The lure of the salt water environs is just too strong to stay away from them. I read about, and bought, some stuff called Aerospace Polish or Liquid (or close to that,anyway) for the exterior. It goes into the pores of the fiberglass and is supposed to do more for the life and shine of the fiberglass than any other product. Another cool or "kewl" thing is that you don't laboriously polish it on like a car wax you just spray and wipe it on then towel dry right away and do that all the way around and you're done. I bought mine at Camping World, you can read about it on their website. under the "exterior care" section. If we be good girls and apply that a couple times a year we will be that much ahead of the salt. I plan to hose Ziggy and Rambo as often as I can while here to avoid the build up. Even when it rains so much it is passing through that salt mist and bringing it down with the rain drops...
Funny, I am a fairly sober-minded type of person and never would have" named" a vehicle except now it seems so fitting. when you rely so much on them and want to treat them so well for your own safety, etc. it seems good to foster a real relationship with them. I took a golf lesson years and years ago from a woman pro in Seattle, she said that while you are standing waiting to tee off to talk to the ball and hold it in your hand and create a relationship with it. I never forgot that....it didn't help my golf game one iota but, I got the idea.
