Bringing back a boat’s showroom shine is fast and easy with the award-winning World’s Best Dual Action Polisher from Shurhold. Developed for the DIYer, the tool quickly removes dirt and oxidation from paint and gelcoat without the burns and swirls common with professional rotary machines. It’s also the perfect solution for waxing and buffing large areas, without the sore muscles at the end of the day.

The World’s Best Dual Action Polisher has a 5″ head with an 8mm orbit and a variable speed from 2,500-6,500 opm, This combination allows the user to achieve a high-gloss, professional finish with minimal effort.

Many polishers are too heavy and bulky for all-day use. And palm-sized polishers have a tendency to cramp hands. The World’s Best Dual Action Polisher is balanced and ergonomic. A soft-touch D-handle adjusts to the ideal work angle, reducing user strain. The straight grip is optimally sized with a non-slip rubber coating and ambidextrous power switch. An included side handle attaches quickly for more flexibility in work styles.

ShurholdUnlike many power tools, the Shurhold World’s Best Dual Action Polisher has a full 20′ cord. Plus, an included GFCI adapter adds safety when working around water by cutting power if submerged or a short occurs. The 120V AC, 500-watt tool draws 4.2 amps. With a quick-change Velcro backing plate, switching pads is fast and easy. Shurhold offers a full range of interchangeable pads for scrubbing, compounding, polishing and waxing.

The Shurhold World’s Best Dual Action Polisher comes with a pad wrench, two spare carbon motor brushes and allen wrench, plus a deluxe canvas storage bag. It costs $154.98 USD (Approx. $270 CDN).

Tahiti—Updates from Paradise

By Zuzana Prochaska

I’ve been to Tahiti seven times—six on charter and once as crew for a couple of yachties. Over the 25 years that I’ve been visiting, it’s changed dramatically. Yet, inexplicably, it has also stayed the same.

Lounging on the flybridge of our Sunsail 454, I had time to think about this dichotomy as I toasted the nighttime skies of Bora Bora and specifically the Southern Cross, a constellation that never fails to hypnotize. As the Crosby, Stills & Nash (1982) tune reminds us:
