I know this has probably been covered but I cant find it, I have a 1980 H16 and one rudder is gray and the other is yellow, I would like to get them bask to white till I can afford to buy the EPO rudders this next summer. any suggestions? :?: George

Take the money you will spend on possible cleaners toward saving for your new ones. Paint is your smartest short term option, but I'm not sure which type to use.

Bar Keepers friend at the grocery store. Mildly abrasive and acidic. Should do the trick.

Oxalic acid works great. It is used as a teak cleaner and is $5+or-.

dude the boat is nice, i think i may be rigging the jib a little low on the chainplate? because evrytime the hull was ready to fly the leeward bow would dig in and spilling the jib a bit seemed to do no good? george
