7 Steps to Protect Your Boat During the Off-Season (Winterization)

A good percentage of boat owners take a break from the water at some point during the year. While this often coincides with winter, hence the term “winterization,” we generically refer to it as the off-season, and it can happen anytime you’re not regularly on the water. 

Wired2Fish’s Ryan DeChaine outlines a straightforward 7-step process to keep your motor and boat in excellent mechanical, structural, and cosmetic condition when in storage. Follow these steps to extend the life, performance, and resale of your boat. For more information on the matter, check out Walker’s boat motor interview with Brian Miller of Sea Foam for some interesting and informative facts.
