Lee Valley sells a small curved scraper with an attachment slot in it. I got one and drilled a hole in the end of a broomstick. I epoxied a bolt into the hole and when the epoxy set, bolted the scraper to the end of the broomstick so that it was at 90 degrees to the stick. I was able to scrape all that rough stuff out of the ends of my boats using this "tool".
