Stinky Bilge

Does anyone know of a good product/method for de-odorizing the bilge? It smells bad. Not like some critter crawled in there & died bad, but pretty bad. I don't want to use any thing that might cause harm to the fiberglass, but it would have to be strong enough to eliminate the smell. Is chlorine bleach a no-no?

I wouldn't use chlorine in an enclosed area and around sparks. I bought hull cleaner from West Marine. You just dump a couple ounces in and it gets mixed around with the existing water while under way. Then the bilge pump just pumps it all out. Seems to have reduced the musty smell.

Funny how water is a boat's worst enemy.
