Here in Florida, it's common practice to bring smaller boats into the
shallows to "beach". Then everyone gets out and plays, lounges, BBQs,
etc.

What damage does this do to the boats hull? Doesn't the sand
eventually sand away the protective gel coat? Is there anything you
can do like good wax?

Its very common, and very stupid. Its done all the time around here and I
cringe when I see someone do it with a really NICE boat.

Most of the time, I see it done by people who don't know any better - as
evidenced by not only their beached boat, but their choice in vessel in the
first place.
