Any one ever use the electrical ones that help fight mold/mildew ??

Are they any good, or worth the money spent for one ??

Re: Air dryers for storage

if you are speaking like the things in public restrooms. they are quite expensive. a small fan to keep circulation is just as good.

I found them in Overtons. They are called:

Drywave Air Dryer
Item #71503

This will be the first/last year for my boat to set outside. Will build a garage for it in the spring.

Thanx

P.S. CABELA's suggested charcoal in a colunder, over a 5 gal bucket, kitty litter, or silica gell pellets

for $59.00 i'd go with the charcoal. and uncover the boat on nice days, to air out.

Heck, for 19.95, get a box fan and turn on low. :)

Re: Air dryers for storage

I had a Very particular friend that used to store his 1930s Chevy roadster grandnational winner in a basic garage in the north east with an 18"box fan his only way to stabilize the inviroment inside the garage.The important thing is to keep the air moving so it doesn't condense out on anything.It also helps the car(or boat)change temperature quicker so it matches the air temp better.
He stored his car like this for 10 or 12 years.I stored my 33 and 53 Studebakers the same way.
