I just bought a boat from the Tampa Florida area, and after I got it back home to the midwest I noticed that the white seats were starting to yellow. What can I do to get them back to white again?
 
Have people been sitting on them with lots of suntan lotion? The lotion could be the reason why they are turning. Don't know how to get the yellow out
 
Suntan lotion is the primary cause of yellowing. It will be in patterns where people sit or lay. If that is the reason, your done.....get used to it, or replace the seats.

Sometimes being closed up and exposed to exhaust, gasses from other nearby fabrics or fiberglass will cause a light yellow cast. Sun and fresh air will eventually make it go away. You can also follow Sea Rays cleaning instructions for vinyl coated fabrics and add a little (not much) bleach to the wash water.
