Hi everybody.
After sailing for over 20 years we bought a trawler recently. It is a Nordhavn 50.
We just came back from 3 months in the Exumas and love the new level of comfort it brought to us.
For now we are on a 7 months on 5 months off schedule and plan on storing the boat in Savannah from May to October.
We are considering shrink wrapping her to keep her out of the sun. AT the same time we would use plenty of damp rid and mildew cide called Home Zone which we use with good result last year when we stored our sailboat at the same yard. We found last year that with no protection from the sun our boat took a beating.
Any opinions on the pros and cons of shrink wrapping a boat in tropic like weather, based on past experience.
Thanks,
Michel
