Default Temporary boat bottom treatment

Does anyone know of a treatment, besides bottom paint, that you can use if you are going to have your boat in a salt water slip for around 2-3 weeks? A friend is vacationing at a house with a slip and only uses his boat in fresh water. He would rather not have it painted and doesn't want to have to go through the removal process when he gets it out of the water. Tried looking on line and everything that I can find is permanent.

Thanks

Stumpy

Good power washer and don't let it sit too long without bringing it for a spin.

What dfish said ^^^

2 Weeks should not be an issue.

If you do get some growth/slime be sure and power wash the boat as soon as you get it out since it will be harder to remove the growth if it dries up and hardens.
