Moisture and mould on board
Why condensation forms under berths and upholstery, and what actually stops it. Written for the people who specify the build-up, not for a spray-bottle remedy.
The water on the underside of a berth cushion does not come from a leak. It comes from the temperature difference between a warm cabin and a cold hull, and from the fact that the mattress sits flat.
A cabin that smells of cellar after the winter is telling you something specific: moisture has been sitting somewhere without moving for months. Where to look, in order.
The thickness follows from berth depth, hull contact and how long the vessel sits closed. A decision guide with the three cases that actually occur on board.
How to clean mould off cushions, berth boards and lockers without wrecking the material, and the one step that decides whether it comes back.
