I live in Eastern NC where it is hot and humid. My 26-foot Glenbrook is
stored outside with no access to power. I am having big problems with
mildew. Does anyone have a solution? I am thinking about buying two of the
solar power vents made for boats which would require drilling holes through
the roof.
Any suggestions most welcome

Exchanging hot, moist air for more of the same probably will not solve your
mold problem. What might work is a product called Dri-Z-Aire. It goes in a
basket like container and absorbs water from the air. No plug in required.
Needs frequent changing and emptying. If you had electricity, a
dehumidifier would help .

For years people have used calcium chloride as a dehumidifier. So a search on the internet and you’ll find a lot of sites that discuss it. Some sell it with fancy names but it is cheaper to buy a bag of plain CACl2 and use it with a bucket to catch the water.
Just dump the water periodically and replace the calcium cl.
