    Storage dryness with rain and condensation?

    Really like the CX18 SS.

    Does the storage stay dry in the rain?

    My boat will be on a lift at the dock under a roof year round. Anybody do the same and how are compartments with condensation?

    My CX 20 pro is on the lift, except during the winter.
    Everything is dry.

    My father's boat is on a lift all warm weather season. Stored inside a house garage rest of season. No condensation on his. But Id say every situation might be different, depends on where you live. Possibly any boat might get mosture inside in right conditions. So far my boat hasnt. Some have compartment/hull fans that could help this. Mine on my cx20pro are always dry.

    I thought I read somewhere that a Caymas had a fan built in to dry the compartments, maybe I was dreaming.

    I keep my boat outside all season. The cover works great and my compartments have stayed dry. No issues with water getting in when fishing in the rain.

    I have not heard of anyone with water problems in the storage boxes!
