    Anyone do any beach camping? We took our new runner on the beach the other day, but it was only for a few hours to surf. Washed it good when I got home. Considering making the trek back out to the Texas coast and camping a few nights. Just wondering how bad you guys think it is as far as salt goes. We would be as far from the water as possible, but I’m sure salt in the air is still heavy anywhere on the beach.

    Were at SPI at least every other weekend. Complete fresh water rinse down leaving the beach. Also at least once a month I clean and treat the under carriage with some a corrosion preventive. Fluid film is great but a sand magnet. I like corrosion block or something similar.
