How many of you guys beach your boats? I've always been told that the sand will tear and scratch up the front of your hull but I always see pics of it being done.
Are you kidding me. Running your boat onto sand and rocks will scratch the gel? Wow I better stop doing that.

I've been considering using Keel Guards on mineDo it all the time,,we do have a Keel Guard. Works Great. I've only seen one Cat. with Keel Guard on each sponsers, he said it works great for him. They don't scrub off any speed since they are not in the water when on plane.
I figure I spend that much on a boat, I might as well enjoy it. Carry on.Funny post.
People worry about wet sanding with 1000 or 2000 grit, they get all worried about what kind of wax or polish to use, they worry about the carpet on their bunks. Then they go and beach their boat and don't give it a second thought. wtf do they think the bottom is made of, titanium?
Figure clean sand without rocks has to be equal to 60 grit sandpaper. So if you're ok wet sanding the gel on your boat with 60 grit sandpaper and an occasional boulder, then you shouldn't have a problem beaching your boatsphss
What's even more funny are the boats for sale showing a pic of their beached beauty in absolutely pristine perfect conditionhand
carry on.
Not while I've owned it.I figure I spend that much on a boat, I might as well enjoy it. Carry on.
By the way, I've seen that boat on the beach a few times..
To each his own...Not while I've owned it.
I don't see wet sanding with 60 grit as getting my monies worth out of my boats.
Agreed.To each his own...
