Why Does Your Boat Smell Weird?

When you're looking at buying a boat, use THE ULTIMATE SMELL Test - your nose. If it smells funky, it is funky. Trust your senses when assessing a potential sailboat to buy! This video highlights how your sense of smell can help detect issues like fuel leaks or problems with the blackwater system. Use your nose to identify potential problems in the dry bilge! Use your sense of smell to troubleshoot potential issues on your boat, such as fuel leaks or a faulty marine toilet. A gas smell or a fuel vapor could indicate a leak, while other smells might signal problems with the holding tank. Keeping a dry bilge is essential for a healthy boat!
