To help you get started, we at Advisors Insurance Agency have compiled two essential steps to follow.
1. Find the best storage place indoors or outdoors
· If possible, find a place to have your boat spend the winter out of water and well out of the way of inclement weather.
· If you are storing your boat outdoors, check on the level of security. For example: Is there security personnel on duty? Is it a locked facility?
· And if your boat will be exposed to the elements over the winter, make sure it is shrink-wrapped by a professional.
2. Be thorough in winterizing or find a pro
If you’re a do-it-yourselfer, the steps to winterizing your boat can be easily found via many online resources. Your boat’s owner’s manual also could be a great help, as most will include detailed winterization instructions. Regardless where you get the details, you will ensure a better start come next boating season if you follow a comprehensive checklist now to get your boat ready for winter.
If you’re opting out of the do-it-yourself category and instead trusting the pros, you’ll want to find a shop that specializes in winterization. Get an appointment well in advance of the assault of inclement weather. To find the best option, consider getting a reference from a fellow boating enthusiast.
