Don't waste your time. You'll get more of a performance increase if you
spend the time you'd waste waxing out on the water instead, getting in
better shape and improving your stroke.

Don't use wax. It interferes with the 303, which you _should_ be using.

I'd never heard of this 303 stuff. Is this for real? some
'protectants' do more harm than good. Glass boats are damned expensive,
so if this stuff really works, it would be worth it.

Any views?

303 works and does not harm the boat. There is one caveat. You will not be
able to repaire the area where the 303 has been applied untill it has
completely worn off.
