Hello I am a new NSPN member with a question that Google isn't answering to my satisfaction. After a summer of renting, I bought my very own kayak (WS Zephyr 15.5). I am also a renter of housing, and luckily have basement space to store it. But what I don't have is a hose that can reach the driveway/street! (spigot all the way around on the other side of the building -- I'd need a looong hose) How important is it to rinse a plastic kayak after every (salty) use? Can i just go through a carwash? Or any other tips? Seems like a silly thing, I know...! Hope to meet some of you soon. Sadly I'm too beginner for your paddles I think, but I'm taking lessons! JL
