I've heard of it...
It's a good cleaner..In fact, I strongly considered adding a similar bilge cleaner to my own company's product line 5 years before they ever existed..till I found out that citrus oil dissolves light plastics (like hatch covers). I was afraid to risk damage claims from boat owners who "don' need no steeeenkin' directions" so we passed on it. So be careful with it...and remember, no matter how good the cleaner is, you still have to flush all the dirty water out of the bilge unless you want to go through a gallon of the cleaner a month.

Their all purpose cleaner is .....
one of the best damn detergents for the marine environment. I've been using it clean dacron (white only) sail for years. It also DISSOLVES mold and mildew, etc. .....GREAT STUFF, although a bit expensive. Cleans teak too. ;-)

Thanks....flushing is the problem...
I'm having a real mess buildup between the liner and hull. It results from a long-term leak this winter down south which left a nasty algae buildup in the bilge. I was actually thinking I could get this stuff into the hull to dissolve what I can't seem to flush out. Sounds like you're saying that's not gonna work. I'm familiar with just flooding the bilge, used to do it on my H31 very effectively. But my current 37.5 seems to have some crevices that just don't flush out. Guess I 'll go back to the thinking board for a while.
