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).

New Boats: Beneteau Oceanis 34.1 – A Sleek, Good -Looking Delight To Sail

By Katherine Stone

There is nothing more that I enjoy than being with friends and messing about in boats. Messing about in brand-new boats on a champagne sailing day on Lake Ontario at the beginning of the summer doesn’t get any better. To have the new owner, Helmuth Strobel and Anchor Yachts dealer Pancho Jimenez aboard made it even more special, as they can also speak to what they truly enjoy about the boat. We keep our own boat in a harbour that has a long waiting list for boats over 35 feet, so this little gem would definitely fit the bill and feels like a much bigger boat. True to the spirit of the 7th generation Oceanis line, the 34.1 is built in Poland and replaces the 35.1. It is 1,000 lbs lighter, 14 cm narrower and has 29% more sail area.
