Fortunately I
do have a choice of a couple of rather nice sheds to hang float tubes, waders, jackets and stuff in to dry out and get an airing
However, it has not always been so. 'Back in the day' I used to shift everything up into the loft or the airing cupboard before
she who must be obeyed got home, but that plan rather relied on my being home before she was....
Getting rid of the smell from 'fishy' float tubes is relatively easy. Don't catch any fish
But seriously..... I have used anti-bacterial wipes (expensive) or a dilute washing up solution and a kitchen cloth. That works but you must clean & dry off the tube completely or you'll 'bubble' your way around the next time you go tubing.
Sadly, the bubbles do not perform as a suitable means of propulsion
By the way, I'm liking Red Oktober II - altogether a more substantial vessel
