As seems to be with other Hunters, there is thin/cosmetic floor pan covering the unfinished hull in the bottom of every locker, cabinet, etc., that all have holes and drain into the hull and eventually into the bilge through weep holes. I scrub the bilge occasionally and try to mop up nusience rain and salt water that finds its way in to keep it dry.
With warm weather back, I notice a funky smell on the hot days when we open the boat that I wouldn’t associate with sanitation. My thought was to mix up a few gallons of either SCOE X10 or K.O., and dump several quarts in every floor pan that has a drain hole when we are taking a day sail to make sure it gets sloshed around in the hull before it drains into the bilge. Maybe I read this in Peggy’s 1st edition?
Is there a downside to this approach?
Thx
