FOR the worst odors aboard, Peggy Peale, the Headmistress of the web
recommended an FDA approved product available from Clean Earth, Bellevue, WA.
Its called PURE AYRE
They have a marine formula. It contains actual food grade enzymes that
Eliminates
odors from most anywhere, and is especially valuable around Heads, Galleys and
Bilges.  WONDERFUL CRUISER TESTED STUFF.

Safe To Spray On People/Pets
Instantly Eliminates All Organic & Chemical Odors. Not a cover-up
Environmentally Friendly, 100% Readily Biodegradable

We got ours at Boaters World (now bankrupt) but also have seen it on the web.
I think Amazon carries it too.

GET THE MARINE FORUMULA.
