Distelled water and vinegar is great. It took us about 3 applications and heavy scrubbing but It came off and looks good as new.

I use the 50/50 with vinegar and then a few teaspoons of liquid wax. It makes the vinegar smell pretty, and waxes as you go. It is not enough to keep the boat waxed, however.

I find that I can use just about anything if the boat has been waxed recently. Even just using the towel on it will take most away, if the boat is wet and recently waxed.

There are some heated debates as to whether vinegar strips the wax off. I don't think it does, but the guys who wax their boats the most seem to have the least problems with water spots. That jives with my personal experience.

That works good, also the minute spray waxs with a tablespoon of alcohol (Bacardi) for the really tough stuff.
All the water spot removers seem to take the wax off.

We use vinegar and water, or straight vinegar when we take the boat outta the water.
Then a coat of 3M UV protecting boat wax.
The wax helps keep water spots from forming next time in.
You can apply it in sunlite on a hot hull too, it's very easy on and easy off.
3M products are colossal.

It's work, but the Tige' sound system and
your iPod and Arizona Ice tea makes the job go smoother.

Plus it's a good time to fuss with your boat, because at this step, the kids will for sure leave you alone.

I too vote for 50/50 vinegar/water. I used it on the last boat and now my 20V. Doesn't seem to take wax off either.
