  • Winterization, Storage, and Tips! September 2017

    With Labor Day in the past, boats and jet skis are starting to come out of the water. It's best to start the preparation process of winterization. While we do offer full winterization and storage services to do it for you, we would like to give you a few tips of what you can do at home. The first thing you'd want to start with is cleaning off your marine vehicle. You will want to make sure everything is as dry as you can get it after you finish cleaning it. Sitting water is bad for the vehicles and can cause mold. After drying everything, place some commercial moisture absorbers to give you the highest chance of defeating the moisture. Top off the gas tank, change the fuel filter, and add some marine fuel stabilizer to the gas. After adding stabilizer to the tank, run the engine for a few minutes to ensure it circulates through the system. Next you are going to want to treat your engine and replace and lubricate everything that needs oil. This should be done after the engine is slightly warmed up to help flush out sediment and impurities with the discarded oil. While the best place to store your boat is in an indoor climate controlled building, if your boat will be stored outdoors, a good cover is your first line of defense against the elements. In severe climates, many owners choose to have their vessels professionally shrink-wrapped, which creates a tight seal against the elements.
