Hey ****head. You pollute the group with your crap and then expect advice.
Guess what, most boaters quit reading this group because of ****heads like you. "Frogwatch" wrote in message ... My family complains the sailboat interior smells of mold although all I smell is diesel. So, I have embarked on a program to minimize any mold problem. I fixed a leaking bolt that held the traveller track down. Took off all cushions and am trying to sorta clean em. Unfortunately, they are very old and I really cannot get them unzipped without ruining them so truly cleaning them is out of the question. I did spray them with Lysol and am allowing them to dry. I wiped most of the boat interior with clorox. Part of the boat interior has a kind of crapet (I meant carpet but crapet is more in line with what I think of this type of covering) that I intend to soak with Lysol and then clean with wet shop vac. I put in three Damp-Rid containers too. Any other ideas? |

If it does NOT work, I win too because I like sailing alone. The product you want is called Pure Ayre. http://www.pureayre.com/ It is very effective. |

That's Harry Krause for you, telling someone to commit arson. |

The last sailboat i crewed on had an unpleasant odour down below...I now believe it may have *been* the *hose* that carries the waste from the head to the *thru-hull*. I've heard someone (maybe Peggy H) recommend taking a clean cloth and wiping the hose exterior. Put it to your nose...... if it smells like Dingy Dan replace before the season starts. What's a "tru-hull"? Swallowing your own medicine's kind of bitter, isn't it? ************************************************** ********* If you actually did any boating..you'd know!http://www.boatersland.com/thruhull.html- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Ummmm, that's called a THRU-hull, speller boy. |
