Winter storage

 

Preparing your boat for winter storage is an annual routine. Have your boat lifted in good 
time before the water freezes. Your boat is not designed for use in ice and it is not meant to 
be used in temperatures below zero (for example, the rain water draining system will freeze 
up). It is advisable to perform all maintenance, repair and inspection procedures in 
connection with placing the boat in winter storage.  
 
Familiarise yourself with the service procedures shown in the engine manual. We 
recommend that you leave them to an authorised service agent. Do not forget to service the 
remote control and steering system. Make sure to perform their maintenance according to 
their separate instructions and manuals. 
 

7.1

 

   Measures before winter storage 

Have your boat lifted in good time before the water freezes. Your boat is not designed for 
being driven in ice, or for remaining in the water when it freezes. 
 
Wash the bottom of the boat immediately after the boat has been lifted. Algae and slime will 
come off easier if they are not left to dry.  
Give the engine and other equipment their winter servicing, following their separate 
manuals. If your boat is stored outside or in a humid place over the winter, empty it of 
textiles and other equipment that may corrode or become mouldy in damp conditions. Wash 
the ropes in fresh water. Replace any worn ropes. Leave bushing valves open. Remove the 
drain plug for the winter. 
 
Electronic instruments are best protected against oxidation and theft by detaching them and 
removing them to a dry indoor environment for the winter. Detach the batteries and store 
them in a warm, dry place. Charge the batteries at least twice during the winter.  Spray the 
couplings of the electrical system with an appropriate water repellent antioxidant. 
 
Always cover your boat so that water or snow cannot collect inside. Always make sure, 
however, that it is adequately ventilated. A winter storage cover is available as an optional 
extra for your boat. 
 

NOTE!

  

 Make sure that the winter storage cover or its ropes do not touch 
the aluminum hull. If the cover or its ropes abrade the hull, they 
will leave black marks on it.
