Forgot to put the dessicant bag in the cabin, now there are a few mold spots on gelcoat. Can't use bleach because it's too close to the cushions in the cuddy, any other ideas? Thanks
 
A little bleach wont hurt - Ive had a mold issue on my cushions and got a tip from the Searay docked beside me. one part bleach to 15 parts water has worked for me and no discoloring. Just spray it go have a beer and when you come back it will be gone
 
I have found good success with Aurora Boat Scrub mixed to a paste with a little Bartenders powder, scrub lightly, let soak in the sun a bit if possible, then rinse. Seems to do well although some stains may take more than one attempt. Magic eraser (vs a towel) also works well as mentioned earlier but it can also mar gel if you get a little too much pressure with it.
