Our 240 Sundancer has an odor in the cabin like oil/fuel. It's not strong, but it has permeated all of the carpet and upholstery and any clothes or bedding that are left in will begin to smell like it too. At first I thought it was just from leaving the canvas up and the cabin door open for weeks (previous owner stored it that way often), but after 2 months on the lake with the cabin door closed and canvas taken down, it still smells exactly the same. This leads me to believe that it's coming from the bilge area, or somehow the smell needs more than months to dissipate even when vented for days.
Is there a way the bilge area could vent into the cabin? If so, is there a solution? If it's just lingering odor from a previous episode, what is the best way to go about treating the upholstery to get rid of the smell? It's just unpleasant enough for me that it makes it difficult for me to sleep.
Thanks in advance!
