On a slightly different note, it's been seen several times at our club
that it's really BAD to move a glider that's been in a very dry climate
to a very humid climate, particularly if it's older gelcoat. The
absorption of moisture seems to be the key to having the gel coat come
off in LARGE chunks during the year or so after it's been in the moist
environment.
