We have a 96 rinker that has some hazing on the gel coat an i was wondering what's the best way to make it shine like new again? The haze isn't to bad but noticeable when looking for it. Any help would be great.

I would probably start by sanding lightly with 2500 grit wet sandpaper then polish it with a good variable speed buffer and good compound. After polishing a good wax job will help the shine live longer.
