Any suggestions for a degreaser / cleaner that isn't corrosive? I have little "chunks" of grease that came off the steering cable, the motor well looks like he*l. Boat Zoap doesn't touch it, and the fiberglass is stained from the grease. I'm open to suggs. Thanks

Use a good degreaser, then a hull cleaner. Then remember to wax it when done. Bleech will work too, but will quickly remove the wax if ther eis any and it will be super dull and will need likely 2 coats of wax back there. If the stuff is sticking that badly it sounds like it does not have a fresh coat of wax and needs attention to prevent it in the future, this is an area I would highly recommend keeping wax on to keep it clean. since it often sees dirty and greese.
