2006 23 LSV Discolored Vinyl Dash

[Bdeever]

I have a 2006 23 LSV that has some discoloring or yellowing of the vinyl dash above my console that is occurring in patches. It you touch it, it appears sticky, but it is not something that can be removed. It is also happening on the glove box cover on the passenger side. Don't get to use my boat enough and it only has 200 hrs on it. It has always been stored indoors and covered since new. Another completely different but similar issue is the start of pink stains on the top of my white vinyl seats that seems to fade when in the sun. I've read it may be the foam glue or even a mold in the foam. Sorry to post 2 issues together, but would like to figure these issues out. I can provide pictures of the dash if necessary.

Just wanted to throw this out there again to see if I can get any responses with a similar experience. Thanks so much.

Sounds like you have diagnosed the issue correctly. The problems probably aren't going away. You can live with it or replace the vinyl. As you probably already know, this was a problem. A lot of it was worse if the boat was covered outdoors in the sun with a dark colored cover. AFAIK, there's no magic fix for it.
