Found the cause of the mold growth in the front cabin — leaking bolts of the windlass base plate.
I see two ways to fix it:
- Undo all fifty bolts, clean everything, paint, install everything back with new bolts and a lot of sealant, paint again.
- Just clean on top, paint over bolts.
First variant — two days job, about €100 on parts.
Second — relatively free (I have acetone and paint) and about an hour job.
Sure thing I'm going second variant first. Sure thing, I'll find later that it didn't work well.
