Clean (Going to try MaryKate Mildew Remover, this year) and protect (Use Aerospace 303 Protectant)the seats before Winter Storage.

Let the interior of the boat air dry completely before covering and storing and take all wet / damp gear out of the toon for the winter. I actually take all the gear out whether wet or dry.

Raise all seat to allow for adequate airflow.

Then I place two plastic containers (each with 5 pounds of charcoal in the mid back and front of the boat with holes (from what I hear helps control the humidity). Might try humidity control packs this year.

Then I leave all my gates open to allow adequate airflow with the cover on the boat.

After all this you need to keep the interior of the boat dry throughout the winter months.
