Winter Boat Preparation
I have put together a collection of articles at Boating and Sailing on winterizing your boat for storage in the off-season. They include:
- Blocking, Shoring and Jack Stands - Hints on how to block and shore your boat correctly for off-season storage and boat winterizing activities
- Boat Winterizing and Dry Storage - Taking a few extra steps now in winterizing your boat will make it easier to prepare and return to the water next season.
- In Water Boat Storage - Many boaters prefer to leave their vessels in the water for the off-season. Here are a few pointers to make the process more successful.
- Ethanol Fuel Problems for Boaters - Continued problems have been reported by boaters using ethanol blended gasoline. Mitigate many of these issues with a little proactive work on your boat.
The more you do now to prepare your vessel for the off-season, the easier it will be to get back in the water next year. Talk to your harbormaster, yard manager or boat mechanic about storing your boat this winter.
