What is winterizing?
Winterizing is the process of preparing a boat, pontoon or personal watercraft (PWC) for winter storage. Elements of winterizing include draining fuel, changing the oil and filter, flushing the system with antifreeze, and doing a general inspection of the machine and trailer.
Why is it important to winterize?
Winterizing your machine is preventative maintenance. It prevents components from freezing during the winter which could mean costly repairs. It also helps to ensure an easy start-up next season. Ultimately it prevents off-season damage and helps to increase the longevity of your watercraft.
How much does it cost?
The cost to winterize is all based on the type of machine. See our base prices listed below. Please note these are estimates and your individual machine may differ.
