Good read!

But we are still left with no location for this elusive approved wash station, and a nagging sense some think we should not wash boats in the water while there is clearly a whole industry dedicated to creating products for washing boats on the water.

The notion that you should not wash boats while in the water at all seems unrealistic and somewhat absurd to me. However I can see how finding environmentally safe products might be challenging.

Something tells me that my personal questions about whats reasonable regarding washing you boat on the water is likely not as simple as I had thought. Just hoping I dont find this is a much a tar-pit as so many of the discussions about COVID have been,,,
