It’s been bothering me that I cannot access under the cabin sole (without tearing it all up) to clean it. So I figured the next best thing would be to re-flood the boat with bleach water, followed by soapy water and finally a fresh water flooding. The first time I tried to flood the boat, I had forgotten the holes that had been drilled into the hull to drain her initially since she was a “land sinker” when I got her. Once the water got to the level of the holes, the water drained out almost as quickly as the hose could fill her. I caught on to what was happening and plugged up the holes 🙂
Hopefully, this will take care of, or at least mostly take care of, any mold that may be growing under the cabin sole. I did some research in Practical Sailor (highly recommend a subscription btw, http://www.practicalsailor.com, like a Consumer Reports, but for boat stuff, no advertising) they offer a very effective homemade mold inhibitor recipe. Easy to make. I’ll put it in a garden sprayer and spray under the sole as much as I am able.
