Inflatable Storage

[Maxwell]

My rigid hull (hypalon) inflatable (AB 9VL) is going into storage this week. It is being stored in a climate controlled warehouse. Am I better off storing it inflated or deflated or does it not matter?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

It will loose air over time, I would lay it out opened up best you can and cover with a plastic sheet to keep the dirt and dist off it.

if space is not an issue leave the air in it, yes it will go soft but folding the seams is not the best for them.

I leave mine inflated and turned upside down with an igloo cooler at the transom and uner the cross seat. upside down in case a mouse got in, his only way out would be to start chewing.

Throw some mothballs in there to keep the mice away!

easier and less smell to just store it elevated and upside down.
