Winterizing Your Boat

Winter storage procedures vary depending on climate, type of storage and length of storage. Check with your dealer/storage facility manager for their advice on what works best in your climate.

When storing your boat up on a rack system, it is important the racks adequately support the hull bottom.

If you do not have a trailer, support the boat like a Correct Craft dealer recommended trailer. It is important to have an even weight distribution.

If you do not have a dealer or marina nearby and must arrange winter storage yourself, contact your regional warehouse.

If you use a mooring cover, DO NOT put it on when the interior of the boat is wet and/or hot. It will trap moisture and lead to mildew on the carpet and/or vinyl. Make sure your mooring cover allows air to circulate, even if you have to leave a portion of the cover off.
