"R" 2575 with 250HP yamaha.

I use a Davis Instruments store dry air circulator - cost $60. It sits on the boat floor and is low amperage. It warms the air and circulates the air under the cover. I use this from about October until April. My pontoon is stored on the lift all winter and when I take the cover off  - no mold...
