If you have a boat but are not going to sail during the coming months, it is maybe time to think about hiring the service of winterization for your boat to make sure you are protected and for this Nautica Marina Alta, the top company in the nautical sector on the Costa Blanca is providing this service and today gives us all the reasons and advantages to look to do this.
What is winter storage?
Winterizing is the period in which the boat will be used little or nothing. It is therefore the most appropriate time to carry out routine and pending maintenance work and should begin when the user will no longer use it for a long period of time.
The winterization of the boat is undoubtedly the best saving investment to avoid breakdowns, so much that otherwise, it could appear in the following season.
In this way, you take advantage of the time in which you are not going to use your boat to check its condition thoroughly and prepare the next sailing season with proper maintenance: adding additives in engine and tanks, greasing, checking taps/locks, safeguarding the electronic equipment, etc.
