Any thoughts? Thanks
If I have to leave it out a couple of nights I put old rags on it and got a motorbike cover from ebay for $40 or there about that I put on top. It has a fabric backing and it's waterproof.

Covered at night and leave it in the sun during the day so it doesn't keep condensation on it.

I reckon as long as you keep it as dry as possible to start with you'll have no problems with corrosion.

When I don't use it all my gear is indoors.
