A black smelly area sure sounds like mold/mildew to me. Try bleach. The house I used to own got mildew on its porch ceilings - a pressure washer with a bleach solution worked pretty well. On bad places I used tile cleaner.
I would try some tile cleaner.

That's pretty common on 35-3's but I didn't know about 29-2's. Yes, we can tell you how to fix it. It's going to be long and really tedious. Graham? Jake? Alan? Please take a number.

Ours is stepped to the keel but the mast appears to be resting on a +/- 6" wide x 4" tall x 12" long block that is glassed to adjacent stringers. There is a small crack in the glass and if there is any water in the bilge it swashes around the crack and makes the whole boat reek...I have further investigated the situation and the crack is for sure the smell. Its got an nasty black ooze that comes emanates as well.
