White Residue on hull 2005 211

[Justin1933]

I have a white residue that is on part of the hull on my 211. I have wax, vinegar, spot remover, etc with no luck. Any ideas on the best way to get rid of this?

Here are some pics:

I bet this maybe lime deposits from the lake water. If the bodie of water you has a limestone basin I have seen this left on the hull. You can spray with a LimeAway and wash with soap and water, rinse alot.

Is the boat stored in the sun for long periods? My '93 SN started its life on a lift in the sun, so I've battled with hazy gelcoat for years. In my case, its not a residue, but the black stripe in the gelcoat begins to turn a hazy white after year or two. I use a 3 or 4 step polishing process with a variable speed buffer (set on a slow speed up until waxing) and 3M products that make it look new, though it is labor intensive. You can buy the whole package through Jamestown Distributors. Done correctly, this not only makes the gelcoat shine like new, but doesn't hurt the decals on my boat. The speed at which you compound is the key.
