While paddling in salt water is fun, top coat hates it! Clean your boat with fresh water and if you feel like going extra mile add some ecological soap :)
Good way how to give extra protection to your equipment is to use protective covers once you are not using it or moving it by car or plane. While traveling by car using roofrack pads and boat sock traveling by plane or shipping your boat with container is different story. You will need combination of faith, good luck and boat cover.
