I would recommend against using any kind of ozone-generating equipment (like
the Bilge Buster) onboard your boat. Ozone generators have been proven to be
ineffective at removing odors. Worse, they can be harmful to people, as well
as to rubber and plastic parts.

Water can be fatal if you drink too much. No doubt that high concentrations
of ozone for a long time can be harmful as well, but just like water, used
appropriately it works wonders. I've used them on my boats in the past with
no ill effects to myself or the boat. Companies use them daily to restore
smoke damaged rooms and buildings. Read the precautions, use your noodle and
be safe. They are VERY effective at removing odors.
