long term storage

for the last 25 years in the winter, we have traveled south in our
motor home.  at first in our 93 280, and the last 18 years in our
present coach.
next week we leave for europe and when we return in october we
will be driving to yuma in the car.
the coach has been parked since april and it will not move until next
spring. it has never been parked for such a long period. it is in the
garage and plugged in with the charger on float.  I am wondering
if there is something else I should be doing to it. 
I have drained all the water and put some bleach in the system.
all the systems are off and the frame is blocked, and a few windows
open for ventilation. freezing is not an issue.
any advice would be appreciated.

Dedicated charger for your chassis batteries and some biocide in the fuel tank, which should be filled up.

As you are located in the island, you may not have issues with frigid temps but I would prepare for it anyway
In Alberta I have to take extreme precautions for winter such as
Over fill tires
Start gen ever month
Run AH monthly
Dedicated start battery charger
Pink in all water systems
De humidifier in coach
