Re: Foul smell
There are many variables, so I recommend that you get right in there and sniff around. You may need to provide more details so folks on forum may help you. What's in the area where the odour seems to be coming from.

In the same are is the vent running under the forward sink to the outside which I believe is the vent for the holding tank. The holding tank is clean and clear right now as we have just had the boat opened up a couple weeks ago.The order seems to come and go a bit but stumped on where its coming from and just how to get rid of it. Please help.

Considering it just came out of storage...have a look for critters and old nests......The drain pan under the ac and any of the shower sumps can really stink from mold even from a distance away, due to the air movement in the bilge.
Check your holding tank lines using the warm damp rag method.
