And while ventilation is good, a small dehumidifier is better...

I agree strongly, but only if shore power is available. On a mooring, dehumidification is too power-hungry.

Also, if you dehumidify, it is best to seal up the boat and prevent exterior ventilation, so you're not replenishing with humid outside air. But have fans blowing around the boat internally.
