Re: the engine, it is standard practice to stuff a rag in the exhaust pipe for 
the winter.  I assume someone smarter than me about engines knows why.  

 

Re: down below, If you’re plugged in – and you often are – you could keep a fan 
or dehumidifier running.  I unplug the dehumidifier when it gets below 45 
degrees or so, but the fan runs anytime I’m plugged in.  Not perfect but I 
believe it helps.

Subject: Stus-List Condensation

 

I wonder if anyone has any profound opinions on condensation, two aspects in 
particular I am concerned with.

One is in the engine, I have seen boats who have plugged the exhaust pipe(s), 
and maybe even the intake inside the boat – 

 

And also in the cabin. I usually leave a hatch and something else on the other 
end of the boat open, so some air can circulate throughout the winter.

Then I began to doubt the usefulness of this a couple weekends ago, when It hit 
71 here, and was still 45 down in the cabin.

I noticed lots of condensation below, which really bothers me.

 

Does anyone know what the best solution is ?
