Hi, I own a pair of i14Ts and was wondering about winter storage. The garage is not heated and I was wondering if it's best to keep the tandem in the bag or keep them inflated. Thanks for any suggestions. Ken |

Send them to me and I will keep them for you. I live in a mild climate and fish all year long.. I will keep the mojo on them until you need them back. What'ya think? |

Ken, Did you get any suggestions that answered your winter storage question for the i14T's? I have an i14T and would like to know how to store for the winter as well. Right now it is folded and in the Case/Bag in the garage as well, but Michigan can be pretty cold come January. Waterboss |

Our inventory is packed in the bags for long periods, so storing this way should be fine. I have heard of others rolling out the hull on a flat dry surface (deflated) and covering with a towel. Either way I believe. Must be dry though. Trapped water will expand when it freezes and could cause issues. |

I wash and dry it out, put a (very) little wd40 on the metal, silicon on the plastic bearing parts, fold it in the stuff sack...but I don't cinch it tight. I dunno why...just seems cruel to leave it bound up super tight all winter. No issues with the i14 after two winters. J |
