    Bought 2 of them in Nov, 08 for our 36ft Tolly Craft w/ aft cab & "V" berth. Placed one in the living area (forward) and one in the aft cab. Keeps everything nice and dry. They work great. Set them on timers for on/off each day when we aren't there. Placed them on cutting boards on the floor, gone weeks at a time. Have never had to worry about them. Going to buy 3 more. 1 for the 20ft Seaswirl and 2 for the RV. Highly recommend it. If your toys sit for any length of time, this is a must have!!

    hope it works better than it looks

    thought it would move air not just heat it. Not sure if it is really going to work.

        I purchased one unit last fall to see if it would help control a moisture/mold issue in a small unheated basement. Realized a second unit was necessary - one at each end. Worked great. Already in use this season.

            I gave an air dryer to my daughter a couple of years ago because they stored their boat outside in the winter, and previous years had to remove a lot of mildew when getting the boat ready in the spring. Usually I take my boat out of the water and store inside. This year I'm leaving my ski boat on the lift with a cover with the air dryer underneath to prevent mildew and rust.

              We have two of these in our 30' Playcraft Tritoon and two in our 24' Four Winns open bow. They are very easy to use and stores easily under the seat when not in use. It seems to really help keep the mold off the seats. We are at Lake of the Ozarks in Missouri and using these with the Damp-Rid products really works for us.

                                This is designed to be used to prevent mildew, but the device does heat up the air slightly so while it may do what you are intending it is not designed for that use. The specifications say it is most effective in cold environments, and can operate continuously.

                                This covers up to 1,000 cubic feet. The would be LxWxH that you are trying to cover. You have 29 ft in length. You will need to measure height and width you are covering and see if it's less than 1,000 cubic feet.
