My 8" f5 imaging Newt and 12" f5 visual goto dob have been stored in the garage of my weekender South Coast NSW for years just with an Orion scope cloak over them and I'm only 250m from the beach ( can hear the waves at night when I go to bed )
No issue with mold, salt etc.. I just give them a clean once a year
I think humidity is more of an issue with mirrors ( from my experience )
Down at the weekender on the South Coast we don't get the sort of humidity that we get at my permanent place of residence in Sydney during the summer months
