In my 13 years of owning and running my fiberglass Bennington, I've gradually resolved to not overthinking things. Batteries being one of them. I run a pair of group 27's, the Autozone marine variant. Change them out every 5 years. Carry a never used charge pack on board. Leave it on both...
I'll give it a shot, when down to the boat next time, late this month. Mine is the woodgrain dash, has held up pretty well. I's sand and spray paint it. Only thing our dash's have in common is the gauge cluster layout
any mildew remover should get that out, let it sit for a few minutes to work. Lightly use a magic eraser, lightly!!! Do NOT be tempted to use bleach. Then treating is the key. I started using this product this year, very happy with results...
I had a similar issue that drove me nuts. Fuel line had lost a tie and worked itself under the back seat. When someone over 200 lbs sat in that seat, it would pinch off the flow. Finally figured it out after replacing all HPDI filters $$$
No full strength bleach infers that a high concentration is fine. It's tempting because it will melt away stains, mold, but it will take it's toll long term on the vinyl and stitching. A touch of bleach, diluted in a 32oz spray bottle is more than enough.
Interesting how the water and conditions dictate type of anchor and scope. I boat on the sandy bottom Eastern Shore of MD with strong tides. I use the Fortress with minimum 5:1 scope. I think I be afraid of dropping her on a rocky bottom for fear of not getting it back.
