Check Clean Dry Check boats, equipment and clothing after leaving the water for fouling or plant material. Remove anything you find and put it in the bin. Reapply anti fouling annually.

Check Clean Dry Clean everything thoroughly with freshwater as soon as you can, paying attention to ropes, bilges, trailers, and areas that are damp and hard to access. Wash your anchor and chain before leaving an anchorage.

Check Clean Dry Dry – drain water from every part of your trailer and boat, including the bilge, before leaving the site. Dry everything for as long as you can before using elsewhere.
