Bilge Access SO 419

Any thoughts on accessing bilge under foreword head shower pan? Trying to eliminate funky bilge smell from this area.

An idea here for just investigating what might be found under the shower and possibly slooshing it out with some fish friendly chemicals,
undo the shower drain and your in …… all be it with somewhat limited access.
Alternatively if you can find the limber hole of the offending bilge area, you could endoscope view what is in there, (endoscopes are now cheap and very handy)  then pump chemicals in to neutralise the nasty niffs.

Finding the cause of the smell is of course better than just washing out the area, perhaps the shower drain isn’t sealing and leaving a puddle to fester. any heads pipe joints likely to leak and run under the shower tray?

Sorry for non ‘model specific’ comments, but hope it helps a little.

Thanks CB, just scoped it with the camera and nothing out of the ordinary, I’ll try the drain next.
