To keep your boat running smooth and looking its best, keep it waxed, keep it covered and keep it maintained.

There are many good waxes. I like 3M products, but most paste waxes for fiberglass will work fine. Try to avoid wash n wax products. You need to get a good coat built up on the fiberglass to protect it from the environment and the sun.

To protect it from the sun, i advise the use of a quality made boat cover. Tarps will do the trick, but you can't tow with a tarp and the UV rays destroy them too quickly.

If you store your boat during the winter, be sure to add fuel stabalizer to the fuel tank before winterizing. The use of fuel stabalizer is a must even if you don't live up north. If fuel gets more than a few months old, it will go bad and turn to varnish deposits in your fuel system.
