Faded spots on boat

I attached a couple of pictures of what I have going on. It appears that it has just faded but I don't know how to recondition it. What do you guys do or use? The rest of the boat looks good, but these rear corners are bothering me. It looks a lot worse in the pictures than in person.

you should just be able to buff it out. my whole boat used to look like that.

I have never actually used a buffer. I would hate to put swirl marks on it.

I had almost the same boat (just traded it in today actually) l1999 larson 206 lxi in the blue and tan and I used 3M Marine Oxidation/Wax combo stuff in a white bottle for a few years on my boat and it took the oxidation off. I didn't use a buffer, just a soft rag and my arms. I recommend some advil and a beer after you get done if you do it by hand. It probably took me 3-4 hours to do the whole boat.

Thanks man, Did you love your boat like I do mine? What did you trade it for?

I have loved every boat I have had. I had the larson for about 3 years and it really was a great boat. I didn't really have any gripes or problems but we found an 03 wakesetter lxi (direct drive) that was in perfect shape with 105 hours and it was too good to pass up. I posted a picture at the end of the "everyone share your or your friends boat" thread.
