Storing 4.3m SIB on Pontoon

[rhysclark91]

Hi

Wanting to get some advice please.

I have a 4.3m fully inflatable quicksilver dingy. I plan on storing it in the Marina all year round on one of their pontoons. The Marina is Tidal (on the thames) and have spoke to one of the guys at the marina who said storing a SIB shouldn't be a problem as the mud is soft so wont harm the PVC.

I have bought a UV resistant boat cover (breathable one) to protect it from the sun.

I plan would plan to visit the marina twice per month (weekly during boat season) to either venture out or to give it a clean & check tube pressure. I will release some pressure between trips to ensure it the tubes dont over inflate during the heat.

Reason for keeping it on the pontoon is i don't have anywhere else to put it other than storing, then setting it up between trips which is very time consuming.

Your advice on this would be appreciated.

Thanks
