caltexfla,

I'm not trying to get into a pissing contest with you, I am relating my personal experience. I believe it is just as valid as your personal experience.
 
caltexfla,I guess I don't :):)

Rereading my posts, I'm not sure why I got all worked up about vinegar, must be the rain. If it works for you, have at it.
 
Cleaning mold and mildew, and removing stains are important, yes, but of greater importance perhaps is solving the mold/mildew problem in the first place. I know the original post was about how to clean it, but a few words on prevention may be in order. I'm no expert but I understand that mold thrives in moist, dark areas with no ventilation. A continuous, or frequent, flow of fresh air is supposed to prevent mold. There are various ways to accomplish passive and active ventilation in boats without letting weather, or vinegar, in.
