Like this mess on my bow, previous owner fixed some scratches wit gel coat.
I think it needs sanding off and re-doing. I ain't gonna bother.

Re: Gelcoat yellowing

Possibly, you may be able to lightly sand and buff the area, this may remove some of the yellowed surface. The normal reason for a yellowed repair is they used styrene or some other solvent to thin the gel coat so it would spray better.
