If you're only going to leave her in the water for 2 weeks at a time then I don't think it's worth it. Just polish the hull thoroughly (use one of the products designed for dry sailed race yachts)...

I know someone that tore the tubes off a 4m rib all the way to the back end of the bench seat. I think they'd been sent out on a bit of a search and rescue mission for a missing flotilla yacht in a...

I only found this out by being a bit lazy, but the best way seems to be to scrub all the weed off with a stiff brush as soon as it comes out of the water, leave the barnacles for a week or so to dry...
