Nice! I just finished my first season with a new H180 OB (non-Signature) and absolutely loved it. Congrats!

I find a quick wipe down with a wet sponge once its back on the trailer goes a long way. The black does show the flaws after a bunch of uses, but quite frankly all of those are below the waterline anyway.

Enjoy!!

Great idea. Think if I just go to the gas station and use that winshield cleaner squeege on the whole boat they would mind?

Congratulations. Nice looking boat, you are going to love it. I use a little vinegar and water after it comes out of the water to keep it looking real nice. It gets rid of all the hard water and muck stains, you just have to make sure you keep up on waxing if you use that.

I carry a couple of large terrycloth bath towels that I use to dry the boat off with at the launch. I don't have a big boat so it only takes a couple of minutes to get it dried off, which seems to keep the water spots at bay for the most part.

Same here. It's a family affair wiping down the boat after each outing.
