Anyone able to reccommend a good person/company for a topside and deck cleanup and polish of a 38footer (2 yr grubby green decks) in SYH?

Go down to your local car wash with a transit mini bus. Load about 8 guys in. Tell them to bring their jets washes and soaps/polishes with them. You will have the cleanest most polished boat on the river.

To keep the green at bay, spray the decks with Patio Magic each autumn and each spring. Do it on a day when it will dry before the rain comes. Any green which is there when you spray won't disappear instantly, but will over the next few days.

If you use a pressure washer on the decks, avoid any timber parts. It will be great for clearing black muck off grp DECKS, as is often found in less rural environments than SYH, but will take years off the life of any wood.
