Hi all, we have a 1999 Hunter 380 and we get this "boat smell" particularly when we run the air conditioner. The lack of that smell is more noticeable now that its getting cool and we don't run it. Anyone have this same smell? Is there a maintenance routine recommended for the air conditioning/heating unit? Thanks, Jack

How would you like to test a product?
I've been asked to help test a product that--so far--seems to do an excellent job of solving the very problem you describe. If you'd like to try a sample, email me (EMAIL pls, not PM!) and I'll send you one.

Peggies Book
Peggies book is a great start to getting rid of odors. On my 376 the stringer aft of the main bulge would fill with water and stink i drilled and it drains into the main bulge. It was a small hole in the stringer,and the water smelled. I wash out with fresh water all the areas under the floor and with a small wet vac suck out the water,,, My wife hates smells , so do I. Good luck

There prob'ly was mold growing in the ducts, but...
I'm involved in testing a product now that's specifically made to eliminate sour and mouldy odors in HVAC ducts.
It's not necessary to replace the ducts to get rid of it.Boats are such damp environments that if you start replacing everything on it that smells a little mouldy, you'd have to replace the whole boat!

Easy fix
Clean the condenser grill and get some Ozmium auto spray from an auto supply store. Your boat can have that new car smell.
