Boat Winterization Process

Proper winterization is crucial to maintaining the longevity and performance of your boat. At Lobdell Lake Boathouse Marina, we offer a thorough and professional boat winterization process and different types of services. Some of the most common are:

1. Engine Maintenance:
- Flushing and Draining: We flush the engine with fresh water to remove any salt, dirt, or debris, and then drain the engine to prevent freezing.
- Antifreeze Application: We add antifreeze to the engine to protect it from freezing temperatures.
- Oil Change: We change the engine oil and replace the oil filter to prevent corrosion and ensure the engine is in top condition.

2. Fuel System Treatment:
- Fuel Stabilization: We add a fuel stabilizer to the fuel tank to prevent the fuel from degrading and causing engine problems.
- Fuel System Protection: We run the engine to ensure the stabilized fuel circulates through the entire fuel system.

3. Battery Care:
- Battery Removal: We remove the boat’s battery and store it in a controlled environment to prevent it from freezing.

4. Shrink Wrap Service:
- Our professional shrink wrapping service keeps your boat safe from the elements.
