8.4 Storage
To give your boat the maximum protection while it is in storage, Carver
recommends that you place your boat in dry (out-of-water), as opposed to
wet, storage. Dry storage also gives you the opportunity to thoroughly
inspect your boat’s hull and underwater components for any maintenance
needs.
8.4.1 Dry Storage
Protecting the boat from the elements during winter storage is advised.
Have your marina shrink wrap the boat or have a winter storage cover
made. Occasionally check on the boat while it is in storage to make sure
that it is in good condition.
If your boat will be in outside storage, properly support a storage cover
and secure it over the boat. Do not secure the cover to the boat too
tightly. Allow adequate ventilation to protect against dry rot. Do not
store the boat in a damp storage enclosure. Purchase and position mois-
ture accumulator packets between the shrink-wrap and your boat’s
enclosures to help prevent moisture from accumulating. Excessive
dampness can lead to mildew, electrical problems, corrosion and dry rot.
NOTE: Do not use the bridge or aft deck enclosure canvas in place of a
winter storage cover. This canvas is not designed for long-term storage
purposes. The life of the enclosure canvas may be significantly shortened
if it is exposed to harsh weather for prolonged periods.
8.4.2 Wet Storage
Wet storage procedures vary from region to region. Consult your Carver
Dealer before preparing to leave your boat in the water over the winter.
