To properly maintain any boat means that you will constantly handle a never-ending stream of toxic fluids. From diesel fuel, engine oil and various additives, it always seems like you're trying to get some noxious liquid from one container to another. To help you along and keep the messes to a minimum, pick up a couple of adjustable fluid nozzles from the hardware store.
These helpful little tools come in all sizes to fit various threaded spouts and are worth their weight in gold. Now you are the one who decides when the fluid starts and stops, and you can always leave the nozzle attached to partially used containers to keep spills down during storage.
