Are you having a hard time year after year with the same spot? If so there
is probably wax or mold release stuck in the Gelcoat. Unfortunately it get
grounded in while sanding so you have to work hard to get it out/off. I

Nate,
I had handrail covers made as well. They are worth their weight in gold. I
still overcoat the handrails every year. The bases sometimes get a little
sun when the cover flips up. I have snaps centered in each loop and they do
a pretty good job of keeping the covers on.

Danny,
If it's any consolation, I made some handrails out of mahogany. They turned
out nicely - one of my better efforts. Then, after a year or two they
started pulling up from the cabintop. Turns out mahogany gets soft from
moisture.
Now I have another "version 2" project.

Right. Handrail covers aren't *nearly* as annoying as toe rail covers.
I made covers for my teak toe rails, but after a few years I realized
that there were times that I just didn't go sailing because taking the
toe rail covers on and off was just too much hassle.
So now I have SS hand rails
