Best Storage Tips
Storing a Boat requires careful preparation to ensure it stays in good condition. Here are some tips for storing a boat
Clean the boat
Thoroughly clean the boat inside and outside to remove any dirt, debris, or saltwater residue. This will help prevent damage and corrosion during storage.
Inspect for damage
Inspect the boat for any signs of damage or wear before storing it. Address any issues promptly to avoid further deterioration.
Drain water systems
If stored outside, all water tanks, pipes, and other water systems are completely drained to prevent freezing and potential damage during colder months.
Remove valuables and perishables
Remove any valuable items or perishable goods from the boat to prevent theft or spoilage.
Disconnect batteries
If your boat has a battery, disconnect it and store it separately in a cool, dry place to prevent it from draining and potentially freezing.
Choose a proper storage facility
Select a suitable storage location for your boat. Ideally, it should be a Climate Controlled facility with appropriate security measures.
