PREPARING THE BOAT FOR STORAGE:
•
Remove the bilge drain plug(s), if installed.
• Thoroughly wash the fiberglass exterior, especially the antifouling portion of the bottom. Remove as
much marine growth as possible. Lightly wax the exterior fiberglass components.
• Remove all oxidation from the exterior hardware and apply a light film of moisture displacing lubricant.
• Remove propellers and grease the propeller shafts using light waterproof grease.
• Remove the batteries and store in a cool place. Clean using clear, clean water. Be sure the batteries have
sufficient water and clean terminals. Keep the batteries charged and safe from freezing throughout the
storage period.
• Refer to the Electrical System Chapter for information on the maintenance of the AC and DC electrical
systems.
• Coat all faucets and exposed electrical components in the cabin and cockpit with a protecting oil.
• Clean out, totally drain and completely dry the fishboxes, sinks and livewells.
• Thoroughly clean the interior of the boat. Vacuum all carpets and dry clean drapes and upholstery.
• Remove cushions, open the refrigerator/cooler door and as many locker doors as possible. Leaving as
many of these areas open as possible will improve the boat’s ventilation during the storage period.
• It is recommended that a mildew preventer be hung in the boat’s cabin before it is closed for storage.
• Clean the exterior upholstery with a good vinyl cleaner and dry thoroughly. Spray the weather covers
and boat upholstery with a spray disinfectant. Enclosed areas such as the refrigerator, shower basin,
storage locker areas, etc. should also be sprayed with this disinfectant.
12.2 Winterizing
FRESH WATER SYSTEM
The entire fresh water system must be completely drained. Disconnect all hoses, check valves, etc. and blow
all the water from the system. Make sure the water heater and fresh water tank are completely drained. Use
only very low air pressure when doing this to prevent possible system damage. Because of the check valve
mechanism built in the pump, blowing the lines will not remove the water from the fresh water pump. Remove
the outlet hose on the pump. Turn the pump on and allow it to pump out any remaining water....about a cupful.
A recommended alternative to the above-mentioned procedure is the use of commercially available nontoxic,
fresh water system antifreeze. After draining the potable water tank, lines and water heater, pour the antifreeze
mixture into the fresh water tank, prime and operate the pump until the mixture flows from all fresh water
faucets. Be sure to open all hot and cold water faucets, including the fresh water spray head in the stern bait
station sink and the water supply valve for the head. Make sure antifreeze has flowed through all of the fresh
water drains.
