Boats vs. Moisture – It’s a Battle Year Round
Fight Moisture, Rust & Mold with AquaSorb™ Marine Grade Absorber & Inhibitor Packs
When it comes to moisture, boats get hammered pretty bad. During the summer they float on w
ater, are often docked or stored covered and exposed to the sun and rain. If a boat has a cabin, then items such as beach towels, bathing suits and boating equipment compound dampness.
When the boating season ends, marine vessels are often abruptly hauled out, then power washed, shrink wrapped, then seasonally stored – sometimes in barns, buildings or out in fenced boatyards very often still damp from the summer fun.
For boaters in the northeast, our boats battle the extremities over four seasons and here in Buffalo New York, climate changes with temperature swings of 40 degrees are all too common.
Protects Headliner, Carpeting and Canvas From Damage
Hot, humid temperatures and seasonal storage creates condensation. If “boat sweat” is left unregulated, it creates damages to the interior cabin areas beyond repair. Many owners are shocked to see that mold, mildew and rust have developed in the cabin’s interior during winter storage as well as during the boating season.
Moisture is a natural enemy to marine cabins, and lowering the relative humidity is critical to prevent rust and the growth of mold and mildew. While in seasonal storage, when sealed closed in the driveway or docked at port, boats are exposed to the weather elements and fluctuations in temperature and humidity.
As the temperature and humidity fluctuate, at some point the temperature of the cabin will be lower than the dew point of the air. It is at this point that condensation begins to occur. Even if this only happens momentarily, the moisture may be enough to promote the growth of mold, mildew, odor and corrosive rust inside the marine cabin.
