I'm think of developing an aerosol with spray on brine so peeps can spray it all over their sray hoods and dodgers to make it look as if they've done real sailing .. do you think there's a market?
 
What about a can that emits the odour of rotting teath while going AAR AAR AAR when we went round Cape Horn. Like one of those newfangled greeting/christmas cards only with a small aerosol inside it as well.

Not such an unrealistic suggestion - I knew a few climbers who used to distress their gear to make them look a bit harder.

What did they do? Shout at it?

erm look, lots of boats do real sailing and loads of them have no salty water onnem either! I spect your wondering - how on earth do they do that? Well, it;s to do with that long blue curly thing again, further down the pontoon, the "hose pipe". Seeing as how you've stopped thinking of selling, I imagine the thing is covered in crap again, hm?
 
My little group go to the Broads every year.
Each time without exception there is a boat owner who sits on the bank with table chairs etc all laid for a meal.
I have never seen the boat move from his berth.
He glares accusingly at all and sundry who dare to actually
use the cut. Should you sail, he will shout "No sailing please"
and you are told to row or use an outboard in case you should bump a boat. Perhaps he owns it. I do not know, but it would be a relief to see him sail away and give it a rest once in a while.

I think you're on to something there. I heard on the radio just now that there is a new accessory for the chelsea tractor: spray-on imitation mud @ £7.95 a can.
 
I think there is a real market Jimi.

We always give the boat and ourselves a good drenching with the saltwater deck washdown pump well before we enter any anchorage or marina in order to build a good rime of salt up.

For those without such a hose an aerosol, as you suggest, would be in great demand to get them out of their softy fair weather sailor type pickle.
