Condensation

[mjk]

Last summer we had problems with condensation between the hull and inside cabinets of the boat (live-aboard). Any suggestions on how to curb this?

Try lining the hull with thin outdoor carpet, worked for us on our sailboat

Thanks! It's a tight area behind the cabinets - do you think just attaching pieces would have the same affect?

MK not sure I understand your question. You want to keep the warm, humid air away from the cooler hull where it will condense, hence the carpet on the hull. I didn't mean the WHOLE hull if that is your question, just the area(s) where you are having problems. You could attach the rug with double sticky tape if access is a problem, or perhaps spray adhesive on the hull and the rug, slide it in and pat it in place.

Good luck
