What do people do, store theirs in the shade, inside?

Anybody use canvas covers like I see on Force 5's and other trailerable racing classes?

I also store mine under a blue tarp in the fishing season and in my shed in the winter on saw horses with all the ports open

Ditto the 303. I use it on the yaks (poly & glass) and also the gaskets on my dry tops and suit.

I store my main one in the shade on the northern side of the house!
Other one is store in front of house under overhang of first floor.
There it only gets early morning sun.
