Default Winter Storage

The trailer will be fine but if I had the option I would
definitely store the glider in the house to keep damp out of
the structure and the instruments. Alternatively, as I do in
Scotland, keep the glider in the trailer under cover with an
adsorption type mains power dehumidifier in the trailer.

In short, no. Just keeping the vehicles away from

rain/snow/hail/sun/
mildew/critters is a huge advantage compare the the

great majority of
owners who have less space/resources.

If you decide to sell in 10 years, let me know,,,
