Not that close to the sea but very damp, holiday home in Europe. All saws, pliers, hammers, chisels, planes etc get a coat of engine oil once a year before I leave, table saw, jointer etc cast iron surfaces gets a coat of woodoc furniture wax. Its a bit of a pain to wipe down before working the next year but better than rust. Mates of mine who are there full time run room de-humidifiers.
On a site in Namaqualand yesterday the farmer had put his entire solar system (for a fence) in an old fridge for insulation, when there's no shade they're good!
