Popped down to the boat for the 1st time in a month... its still there!

Noticed though with all the rain, we have a leaky window which is a pain, will need to figure that out, any tips to locate reseal?

But in the bow, all of the wooden panels are covered in mould. I take it warm water and bleach is the best option as with any other mould?

Also we are having the sea cocks replaced for the toilet which we have a brand new unit for, although need to get a fitting kit. Any tips for removing the old broken unit?
 
Depends on the type of window. May be a case of remove and refit with new sealing. May be a case of getting the window unit overhauled.

Captain Tolley's Creeping Crack Cure can sometimes be very effective.

A Mould cleaner such as the Polycell one will leave a residue which will prevent the mould recurring. Bleach or a bleach based mould remover does not do that.

Using a spray from Kleeneze at home at the moment ...... seems effective on tile grout, bath mat, shower curtain and around bathroom windows etc


What toilet? Cut old hoses and undo fixing bolts/screws I should think will cover most such removal jobs.
 
I'll get on the case for something a little bit more dedicated to the job in that case.
We thought it was a jabsco but can't fond anything on it to say it is or isn't. Our new 1 is definitely a jabsco though

Several makes in the past very similar to a Jabsco
