I did quite a bit of research on dehumidifiers after buying my boat. The surveyor said I needed a dehumidifier with a heating coil. My research led me to believe that desiccant dehumidifiers were best. I ended up going with this one: http://a.co/bqzR9jp It's not too big and sits on the galley counter and drains into the galley sink. It works well and I'm really happy. I also run a small heater and fan.
Recently, I also bought a temp and humidity logger gadget for tracking such data when I'm not at the boat. (I'm a sucker for gadgets...) When I'm cruising the same gadget will go in the ice box to tell me the temp there. http://a.co/8Cyk0BA Cheers, Jeremy C&C 34-1 #041 Vancouver BC ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: "Hoyt, Mike" <mike.h...@impgroup.com> To: "cnc-list@cnc-list.com" <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> Cc: Bcc: Date: Tue, 26 Sep 2017 12:23:17 +0000 Subject: Re: Stus-List update on 1987 c&c mkii - now dehumidifiers Matthew I have an Eva Dry mini dehumidifier on Persistence which is on all season long. It is extremely small and lightweight and does not use a dehumidifier. I leave on the counter in the galley when at dock and simply put it in the sink while sailing. It is rated at 1 cup water removal per day and seems to work reasonably well. Once upon a time we used to lug a full sized home dehumidifier on and off our previous boat every time we went sailing. That was not fun. The Eva Dry was a nice compromise.
