Boat Storage Preparation
It’s essential that you look after your boat and ensure it is sufficiently prepared for storage – whether that’s long-term or seasonal.
Tips for Winterizing Your Boat
The amount of time you’ll need storage depends on your situation. You can reserve temporary storage for a move, or long-term storage if that better fits your needs. CubeSmart understands that you may not know how long you’ll need storage, and we offer month-to-month leases, so you have the flexibility to move out when the time is right.
How do you winterize a boat?
- It’s essential you give your boat a good clean to get rid of salt and grime. Your boat will get covered in residue each time you use it, and you want to ensure you put it to bed clean.
- Replenish all fluids. Just like any other vehicle, you don’t want to let these run low, so check and re-fill levels including fuel, oil, propane, water, coolant, and sewage.
- Disconnect the battery to avoid it running low or becoming dead when not in use.
- Use a quality boat cover for extra protection from moisture and sunlight – especially if stored outside.
- Winterize your outboard motor. Read more tips in our FAQ section below!
