A boat cover can last for 20-years of more....hard-to-believe but true....if it is re-waterproofed every other year or so.....and can be done while the cover is on the boat on a sunny day.
VERY interesting----silicone masonry waterproof ?!?Sounded good up until you spray it while on the boat. Aren't you worried about over spray onto the nicely waxed fiberglass ?? But none the less it's still silicone and once it drys it becomes water repellant, interesting. Thank you.
