Kayak冬季存放

[XUYCA]

今天把车库棚架腾出一块地方，把Kayak推上面存放。下面依然可以停车。棚架恰好一人多高，拿上拿下也很方便，一个人搞定。大家都是如何存放Kayak的？

空间使用合理。只是觉得这塑料低温会不会老化的快点。能否放utility room？

这也是我担心的问题。没有Untility room。车库保暖看来有必要。

我打字错误。就是放洗衣机那间小房间，塞个ky应该没有问题。专门给车库供暖本还大过物啊。

放屋里，太麻烦。拿出拿进不方便。只能放车库。

我的车库里没有"腾空"的架子, KAYAK 只能放在车库里的地面上. 没有加热, 上个冬天巨冷, 就是如此放的, 并没问题.

这个冬天将继续如此放, 但同时再加制作两个木板长凳, 以便同时把疯蛙同志的 KAYAK 放到我的 KAYAK 上面 (两个 "她胖 100" 的 KAYAK 上下"摞"起来放 )

那我就放心了。

Have you guys ever seen plastic garbage bins cracked through winter?

Canoe and Kayak Storage

When you are blessed with having different seasons, there comes a time when you have to hang your paddling hat and store your boat for the winter. I know it's hard, but tuck it away and move on to some great winter sports. If your canoe or kayak sits improperly stored for 5-6 months of the year it may not perform as well as it used to. Spend a little time to figure out what storage method works best for your situation.

Inside or Out?
It is preferable to store your canoe or kayak inside, however this is not always possible if you do not have a garage, boat house or basement. Some people I know keep their kayak snuggled up to them next to their bed. Another customer brought his tandem kayak into the living room and used it as a couch for his kids to watch TV from!
Unfortunately not everybody wants to be this close to their kayak or canoe during the winter months, so if you must store it outside make sure that you don't allow snow to pile up on top of your boat and keep it away from any potential trees that may fall on it during a heavy wind storm -- I can't tell you how many canoes I have seen destroyed because of these two things!

Canoe Covers
The biggest issue with storing a boat outside is exposure to the sun's UV rays that can degrade and discolour the material over time. Keep your boat sheltered from the elements with a cover or tarp. Keep in mind that most tarps are not that tough. I have seen many a blue tarp torn to shreds by strong winter winds.
Jump to:

Kayak Covers
Danuu covers are made for this sort of thing, and when you are not using the strong cordura cover for storage, you can also use it for vehicle transport. Make sure your cover or tarp is tied down securely to your boat, but leave an end open to allow for some air circulation. Moisture build up throughout the winter can cause discolouration.

Cold or Warm?
Of course, warm storage is better. Cold temperatures will often cause plastics to become more brittle, however it is not the end of the world if you have to store your boat in cold storage. If you have a Royalex canoe with wood trim, loosen the screws on the gunwales before storing it for the winter. Royalex will contract at a different rate than the wood trim which can cause severe cracks in the hull.

Always make sure to:

Seals Cockpit Net
Remove all hatch covers and neoprene covers. Hatches should be open to the air
Use a cockpit cover to keep out rodents, leaves and dirt. I like to use one that is half mesh and nylon so that the cockpit is not air tight for the whole winter
Store your boat up off the ground
Store polyethylene (plastic) kayaks on their sides
Store composite kayaks with their hull up or on their sides
Store canoes upside down
Remove float tank plugs (if any) from the bow and stern of your canoe

Racks and Storage Methods

Suspended
Many people choose to hang their boats from the roof in the garage. This gets them up and out of the way and allows you to store other items beneath them. Do not hang your boat from grab loops or carry thwarts. These are not always structural handles and could break. The best way to hang your kayak or canoe is to use a strap or sling under the hull. This can then be attached to a hanger on the roof. You may want to set up a pulley system if your ceiling or rafters are high off the ground.
Harmony Watersports makes a great sling system that hangs from 1-3 kayaks. Suspend the pair of slings from hangers in the roof and clip your kayaks into the loops provided.

On the Wall
It is easy enough to make L shaped wooden racks that can be fixed to a wall. Use foam padding on the straight arms to cushion and protect the canoe or kayak. It is best to store canoes upside down on the gunwales and kayaks on their side. Position the racks under the bulkheads of the kayak to provide maximum support and prevent any deformation of plastics.

On the Ground
If you are storing your boat outside, do not store it on the ground. Use a sawhorse design replacing the top support with webbing to rest the canoe or kayak on. A simple storage method is to use 2 Universal Foam kayak blocks spaced 6-8 feet apart and lean the boat on its side against the wall.

正解！就跟绑船一样，猜来猜去还不如看厂商说明书和HELP文档！

赶脚冬季尽量不要移动Kayak，因为，寒冷使得塑料的强度减弱，易裂。

放地下室好了，车库冬天可以到零下10多度，这还是做了一般保暖的结果

没有腾空的架子，可以腾空DIY一个。 这样Kayak就可以住楼上了。楼下可以冬天停车。
