is the white rubrail a pain to keep looking good? I would love to use white but I fear how it may look after stains, discoloration and wear. What are your thoughts on it? Awesome looking boat!

I personally like the look of the white rubrail.. The boat was not used much by the previous owner since the restore so it does not have any blemishes at this point.. As we begin using it a lot, I will let you know how it is holding up.
