Does anyone have a good idea on how to store the mirage drives (out of the water)?

I've tried laying them on their sides, supporting the fins. I'm thinking about hanging them, either by the pedal shaft or by the axles (where it clicks in). There is no info from Hobie about the proper storage method.

If anyone has come up with a good solution, please share. I've searched the forum and all I've found is someone using a cardboard box.

I do not have any picts, but I use a bungy cord with the hook on the ends... tie to the rafters and hang two drives together.. One one each end hook... then I place a small 1 by 2 between them to seperate and not bump together while hanging. Sorry no picts. Oh, the end hook is placed on the peddle shaft... Just slightly bend the hook open so it is a snug fit. Works very well for me.
