How to get rid of boat odor
 
We use our boat a lot - we've been on it in Mexico for the last 5
years - and spend 18 mos in Central America as well. Before that AK 3
times, NZ & Aust, Japan, etc. We are completely emptying the boat
after 21 years. Will wash thoroughly - hate to replace the foam on 6
berths and all the salon cushions. Will try the Pureayre and Odorxit.

Dear Sir,

Use your boat.......... Live in it..... Sail it........... Boats are
like people. They need to be used and breath deeply to be healthy.
Sal****er is best.

Try a product called Consan Triple Action 20. It can be bought at
Lowes and even the grocery stores. It is an enzyme action. Does a
very good job with oders and is no toxic. Alos kills mold and
mildew. Google at Consan.

Ozone.

Beware, ozone attacks rubber so figure on replacing ALL hoses.

How to get rid of boat odor
 
After 20+ years the mold and fungi living on the UNDERSIDES of sole,
cabinetry; BEHIND all those closed spaces will qualify as an official
'mushroom farm'. Only way to rid it is to open it, scrub it and
leave some 'caustic' to prevent its reinfection.
Aspergellus, Stochybatris are common and harmful molds that THRIVE in
those spaces ... only way to rid them is to SCRUB them, etc. No
perfumes, no deodorants, no magic potions .... as if you dont REMOVE
them the dead cells only become nutrient sources for 'other' species.

Got soap? Got scrub brush?
