Finalllyyyy!!
My mildew /(MOLD) problem is solved! It took a couple of weeks & to keep the boat mildew free there are some things that I'm going to keep on doing. Thanks for the suggestions and advice!

Look at Part One of this video here (I discover the mildew and try to remove it). Unfortunately #dogecoin hasn't risen any higher so I can use Crypto currency returns to buy new cushions. It works out though because this solution worked quite well in the end.
REMOVE MILDEW:
1. Remove foam/cushions from covers
2. Spray amply with vinegar
3. Leave in the sun for 2 or so hours.
4. Mix chlorine bleach and water (7/12 parts water to 1 part chlorine bleach and spray the cushions, then put them in the sun to dry.
5. Repeat steps 2 & 3 about three times (you might miss areas, so hopefully after three times everywhere got sprayed).
6. Leave in the sun for a day.
PREVENT MILDEW:
1. Encourage airflow:
-Put a fan in the area
-Open the area that the cushions are stored in frequently for air to pass through
-Do not stack the cushions one on top of the other.
-Do not leave cushions in their covers unnecessarily
2. Reduce moisture in the environment:
-Use moisture absorbers such as DampRid
I hope you find these tips helpful. Note that it can take some time but you should be persistent and it will all work. I saw my results over the time period of a month. It's a lot more cost effective to do this than to replace your cushions entirely.
I didn't upload last week as my video disappeared from the editing software so I did this video instead. I hope you enjoy it!
