Proper storage of your kayak and gear is essential for maintaining their condition and prolonging their lifespan. Here are some tips:

  • Clean and dry your gear: Before storing your gear, make sure it is clean and completely dry. This helps prevent mold, mildew, and other damage from moisture.
  • Store in a dry, cool place: Store your kayak and gear in a cool, dry place to prevent damage from moisture, sunlight, and temperature fluctuations.
  • Use proper support: When storing your kayak, use proper support to prevent it from warping or bending. Use a kayak stand or rack, or suspend it from the ceiling with straps.
  • Protect your gear: Protect your gear from dust, sunlight, and other environmental damage by storing it in a protective bag or cover.
  • Inspect your gear regularly: Regularly inspect your gear for any signs of damage, and repair or replace any worn or damaged parts.
