Water from tanks smells like sulfur. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Flush them

Sounds like you had some water sit and get a bit funly on you. I've never had fresh water produce that smell, just salt. I'd consider emptying them, flushing with fresh water with a water purifier additive, then rinsing again. If you can take the boat out for a ride fill the tanks enough with the purifier and let it slosh around during your ride. I'd empty and rinse when I got back. Good luck.

Smell

I'd ask this question of Peggie Hall at the Expert Forums on this site. http://www.sailboatowners.com/forums/menunew.tpl?fno=51 She'll have the solution. Randy
