The ceiling of my boat's cabin is stretched white fabric with small
holes over foam (I imagine). I wish I could describe it better, but
even though I think it's a pretty common fixture in cabins, I've never
heard a name for it. In any case, years of cooking and general use has
yellowed it. I've tried spray-on bleach, but with no success (the
spray clouded up the cabin and burned my eyes...and the fabric was
still dirty).

I'm pretty sure it goes by the same name as what's in your car.

Headliner.

Cooking grease or smoke doesn't come out of anything very easily.
Probably will take some scrubbing and then it'll probably only improve
incrementally.

Headliner isn't hard to come by and it's not particularly hard to
replace if you're inclined and a little bit handy.

Removing and replacing the headliner with nice results is not a job for
even those who are "a bit handy". If it comes to that I would only
trust an experienced contractor.
