Most annoying thing for me is hitting my head on the bow flare when i get done winching it on. Stains? Thats what paint is for.

Cool

MaryKate On & Off hull and bottom cleaner. Serious stuff...follow all directions and use protection, but it will remove stains like nothing else, and will not harm fiberglass. This stuff contains a combo of hydrochloric, oxalic and phosphoric acids, so be careful with it and ONLY use it outdoors... NOT in a garage. It does NOT contain Muriatic acid. Gloves, Goggles, long sleeve shirt and pants, and a Vapor Mask are manditory.

For me its the way the transom wants to yaw out when the bow entry hooks into the backside of a quartering sea.

Most annoying? Hmmmmm...

1) Being dead on empty and having to fill it up.
2) Trailer & watercraft registration.
3) Not getting to use it every day.
4) 60 gallons is not quite enough, need 80 (but that would make #1 even worse!)

Wow - I heard a guy sprayed this stuff on his boat hull, then went back into the house for bathroom break. When he came back out - his boat was gone, and there was just a huge smoking hole in the ground where it had been !!

Now that's what I call a powerful cleaner !!

LOL...

It's not quite that bad, but it is serious stuff. Will not harm fiberglass. I've used it many times.. First time I used it was on an old boat someone had given me... I had tried everything to get the stains off the hull.... with no success. I got this stuff, used a sponge to put it on and watched the stains disappear instantly...totally amazing product... But if you get it on your skin you'll know about it quickly. So you have to be careful.
