Boat wintering

Boatwinterization is a crucial step for any boat owner, whether it's a sailboat or a motorboat. The winter period can be hard on boats and their equipment, so it's important to take the necessary steps to protect them.

WINTERING A MOTORBOAT

One of the first aspects to consider when winterizing boats is the engine. It's important to ensure that the engine is clean and in good working order before wintering. To do this, you can use products such as STOPSEL Universal Cleaner Universal Cleaner to thoroughly clean the motor. This product is ideal for removing dirt and residues accumulated on the motor, ensuring it runs smoothly for the next boating season.

It's also important to ensure that the engine's cooling water circuit is flushed with fresh water to remove any salt and mineral residues. This will help extend engine life and prevent corrosion. The water hose can be used to perform this operation.

WINTERIZING THE BOAT HULL

When it comes to the boat's hull, cleaning with a pressure washer can be an excellent option for removing dirt, algae and shells accumulated during the boating season. STOPSEL Universal Cleaner can also be used to thoroughly clean the boat's hull. You can apply it with Starbrite Reggae Microfiber Sponge.

BOAT HEAT-SHRINK FILM

After cleaning, it's important to cover the boat to protect it from the elements. The Heat-shrinkable boat film is an ideal product for covering the boat's hull, offering extra protection against UV rays and wet weather.

In addition to the above tips, it's important to consider other aspects of safety and maintenance when winterizing boats. Make sure the boat is in working order and that all safety equipment, including life jackets, is in good condition.
