Living in an area that doesn’t have a winter season can seem like a blessing to boaters. You don’t have to worry about winterizing your boat or protecting it from the snow and freezing temperatures. However, living in sunny climates can also be a bad thing for your boat. Constant exposure from the sun’s UV rays can cause damage to different parts of your boat, resulting in avoidable repairs and costs.

The winter season can bring about trouble for boat owners who live in areas that experience cold winters. The freezing of water can cause serious damage to your boat in addition to the rough winter weather. Winterizing your boat is key to long term protection during the off season and to prevent any costly repairs. No matter what type of boat or engine you have, these general steps will help maintain your boat over the winter and have it ready to hit the water next season.
