The Basics of Winterizing Your Boat
Owner's manuals are your best source of information on winterizing your particular boat and its various systems. At a minimum, you'll want to protect your engine and water system (including the head). Expensive electronic equipment may be safer if stored in a temperature controlled, and secure, location for the offseason. Keeping the interior of your boat dry can prevent mold, mildew, and mustiness. Your furnishings will make it through winter in better condition if you prevent excess humidity from building up inside the cabin. Whatever you do to properly prepare for winter will likely save you money, stress, and extra work next spring. It can also mean getting back on the water sooner!
These are 12 important winterization steps to take to protect your investment in your boat:
Drain the engine to prevent a cracked engine block or manifolds. Flush the engine with non-toxic antifreeze. Stabilize the fuel to protect the carburetors and fuel injectors from clogs. Fog the engine cylinders to prevent corrosion inside the engine. Change the oil to get rid of any water that may be contaminating the old oil. Completely drain the fresh water system and add non-toxic propylene glycol antifreeze. Don't forget the water heater! Drain the head, flush it thoroughly, and add antifreeze (if mended by the owner's manual). Make sure your batteries are fully charged. Turn off the refrigerator and freezer, clean them, and leave them open. Install a dehumidifier or use plenty of moisture absorber scattered throughout the boat. If you can't store your boat in climate-controlled storage, shrink-wrap it for the next best type of protection. Otherwise, use a boat cover or tarp to protect it from the harsh, wet winter weather. Don't forget to take any portable valuables home with you!
