The hull of a boat consists of an internal network of frames that extend from side to side (transverse) and that run the length of the boat (longitudinal), covered by an outer shell plating, usually made of fiberglass or metal.
If the boat will be kept on a trailer, such as Jet Ski trailer, or small boat trailer, it is highly recommended to either keep it set up in a garage or car port or under some kind of shade. Even a tarp spread overhead using ropes will provide some kind of protection against direct exposure to harmful elements.
