Dehumidifier for boat?

[Webdog]

I want a better de-humidifier in my boat. I store my boat outside with a cover on, and I am getting too much moisture. Does anybody know of a good de-humidifier to use?

TheRogue has it right. take it out and fish!!! at least you will ahve gotten it wet!

make sure that your storage cover is not tied down too tight. Should be able to get some air flow under the cover while it is one the boat. add some small wood blocks to give you an air gap.

also make sure that the cover is arched over the hull so that no water pools on it.

I bought an electric unit this fall for my boat, I think it's called a heat wave? I bought it at G.I.Joes when they were on sale for about $35. So far so good.

I have used 2 Dri-z-air units for several years now. Easy to use and cheap enough. I crack all hatches. My boat normally doesn't sit more than 2-3 weeks, stored under cover but open, with full top. You can buy the containers and pellets at Bi-Mart. Have to check more often during wet weather, but I leave all gear but rods in the boat, and don't have any condensation/mildew problems.

get a de-humidifier and a humidifier and put them both in the boat. Grab a brew, and watch them fight it out, it's a ton of fun! :grin:
