Aerating the tank will eliminate odor out the tank vent, but it won't do
much if anything for odor inside the boat. Reason: the tank is rarely if
ever the source of odor inside the boat...'cuz unles the tank is leaking
(which, if the tank is metal, it very well may be...but aerating the
contents won't cure that problem), odor from inside it has only one
place to go: out the tank vent. So trying to get rid of odor inside the
boat by trying to eliminate odor inside the tank is just chasing your tail.

The most likely sources for odor inside the boat are permeated hoses
(replacement is the only cure for that)...wet bilges and/or sumps in
need of a REAL cleaning instead just dumping in more bilge cleaner
and/or bleach...leaky y-valve or macerator pump...even a chain locker.
Chain lockers are the most overlooked source of odor...'cuz it never
occurs to owners that the same dead and decaying sea organisms that make
the first flush of a sea water toilet stink are dead and decaying on
your rode and walls of the chain locker.

DON'T try to cure the problem with bleach. At best it's just a temporary
band-aid and as you noted, it's corrosive...also highly damaging to rubber.

First, find and eliminate the source of the odor. Then clean the entire
area(s) with detergent and water...JUST detergent and water. And
finally, spray every surface with a product called PureAyre
(http://www.pureayre.com). I tripped over this product at a boat show
last year...brought some home to test...and the stuff WORKS! There are a
bunch of products that will eliminate any organically caused odor, but
PureAyre is the only one I've found that'll get rid of ANY odor, even
diesel.

Don't rinse after you've sprayed with it...just let dry. If you still
have odor, or it returns, you haven't found and eliminated every source.

Oh...one more thing: get RID of the vent filter! It actually helps to
create the very problem it's sold to solve because it restricts the free
exchange of air needed to prevent the odor out the vent that the filter
traps. If you have odor out the vent in addition to odor inside your
boat, install the Sweetank. What you're spending for filters and tank
products now--which you'll no longer need--will pay for it in 3 years or
less.

No me deja traducir mas la masquina, alguien tiene alguna que pueda hacerlo?

Jo, miah.

Ya te lo podías haber currado un poco.

No digo que lo traduzcas entero, pero leer a Caballo loco a esta horas...


Tómate algo, que estarás rendido.
