Default Odors from Engine Compartment

I'm getting odors from engine compartment through the storage compartments that run along both sides of boat from engine compartment to cabn. The ac picks them up and/or sucks them in and recirculates them forever.

Has anyone tried to seal those off?

odors ? seems you need to find the source .....If its on the Starboard side could it be a leak in the sewage line ?

It's probably the starboard side becasue that's where the a/c is and the compartment is opne all the way to the engine area. Not sewage--have a virgin port-a-pot. THe smell are general engine bilge smells that are kind of greazzzy, oily, fuel--general odors from engines.

I need to coles that up anyway becasue it's not helping hte a/c in this heat wave we're having and it will make the system work better this winter.
