A little bit of engine degreaser if it is bad, but follow it up with a coat of wax.

WD40.... cuts thru tar and doesn't hurt paint/gelcoat.

I can not rememeber the name of it right now.
It comes in a clear plastic bottle, the liquid is yellow, and smells like lemon.
I want to say it is called gook remover. hahahaha

I use WD40 and an assistant on the cars, should work the same on a boat!!
I try to get the kids to help, but it's usually me alone!

KEROSENE works very well also!!You hit the nail on the head. Pour a couple of cups into a bucket of warm water and wash you boat. Won't hurt the gel or the paint. Wash it with a car soap after that. You'll have to wax it as the kerosene takes any you had on off. Another tip.... If you have a painted boat, washing it with kerosene once in awhile will do it wonders. It not only takes off wax build up but it keeps the paint rejuvinated in a sense.

Simple Green works well also. Full strength on the bad stuff, diluted for general use.
A friend uses Coleman "white gas" same as kerosene I guess...

Lakes tells me he pops the tar off with his syringe.

Yep, it's true.
I hear Chuck Norris give the tar a razor precise roundhouse kick and knocks it off faster than you can see him spin around. And then makes the boat pay him for it.

hahaha.
I also heard if he stares at it long enough, the tar melts right off the boat. He then scoops it on to a spoon, heats it up and injects it in to his veins. :)

You've got to be kidding. Tar doesn't dare go anywhere near any vehicle that Chuck Norris owns, has owned, might own, or any he has even driven. Tar is not stupid.

LMAO.
Even though it stays away from him, he still knows where it is. Chuck Norris can see everything that goes on. Chuck Norris is god, afterall, his sperm cells are the size of eels.

Now we just need to make him cry. Of course, we would be commiting suicide then, cause there is a 100% chance of death.
