Hi, my second post in this forum on my recently acquired 2016 MF855.
When first viewing the boat I noticed a chemical/petrol type smell in the pilothouse so I asked the surveyor to focus on this during his inspection. He gave the fuel system a clan bill of health in his report and put the smell down to the fact that the canopy had been stored in the master cabin and/or GRP odours from the boat sitting in the sun. I've since removed the canopy but the smell has lingered and been noticed by others.
While I'm awaiting for a petrol sensor/alarm to be fitted, I was wondering if anyone else had encountered something similar ? Maybe this is a feature of Merry Fisher's I need to live with ?
Thanks.
