Cedar paddleboard
Hi all,
I built a cedar paddleboard a few years ago and have it hanging on the wall in my living room. I is 11' long and takes up a lot of room. The wife loves it but I know she would also love to do something different with that wall so I was thinking about putting the board in storage. I have a canvas bag that I can store it in. I live in Florida so its very humid and I am concerned about expansion while in a non-climate controlled storage building. The board is hollow, vented and has two layers of fiberglass top and bottom. Will it expand enough to do any damage? Thanks!

If the interior is all sealed with epoxy and you leave the vent plugs out then it should be OK. If the interior is not all coated then I'm not so sure. It may still be OK - I think cedar is relatively rot resistant. Is the light timber a cedar too?
The canvas bag is more likely to be a problem as it may suffer from mildew/mould in that climate.Cheers, Bob the labrat
