About a week or so after buying my 28' Larson Cabrio 280 last fall, I developed a nasty cough / sore throat. After a rather long while it passed..
Now that I've been spending 2-5 hour periods every few weekends working on small things over winter, I'm noticing the same sore throat. minor headache, cough come back after i've been in the boat for a few hours. I'm assuming this is a reaction to mold / mildew, as the boat's a 1994 and has had plenty of time to develop such things.
Does anyone have any advice regarding A) How to clean the stuff, or b) how to avoid these symptoms? a large part of buying this boat was the desire to spend weekends on the hook or at other marinas up the peninsula, but if a few hours gives me a sore throat and headache, that'll put the kibosh on weekend trips.
Help!
