Hi 181G and 182G Owners,

how do you guys control the moisture in the garage compartment during winter storage?

I had mold growth on the inside of the garage door and water pooling under where the radio control is at the end of the season. I bought a Davis Air Dryr 500 for storage this winter but I am wondering if that will be enough since there is no air circulation in that compartment. I'm also thinking about installing a vent cover on the garage door to allow air circulation.

Your thoughts and experience will be appreciated. Thanks.

Personally I would prop it open, just a little, to get air circulation.  Not sure if that would allow water in from the top, but a tarp will take care of that.

We need to keep it locked during storage so propping it open is not really an option.
