Thought I ask…what do you guys use to protect, shine and make your BeachCat hulls more efficient? And what kind of procedures and tricks do you guys use?

I have noticed more people are using a garden type sprayer to wash down immediately upon coming off the water. Get the salt water off before it has time to crystalize.
