Company Policies
- Service Order: Winterization must be ordered no later than 1-week in advance before freezing temperatures to guarantee service.
- Dewinterization: YOU MUST CALL 1-WEEK IN ADVANCE TO SCHEDULE YOUR DEWINTERIZATION.
- Payment: Due to the time sensitivity of the upcoming winter weather we must receive payment before we can schedule your winterization services. You may pay with check, cash, debit/credit card. Debit/credit cards will be charged a 3% processing fee.
- Scheduling: We will use your payment receipt for scheduling purposes. Your order will let us know what package you desire but your payment will serve as proof of scheduling services.
- Keys: We will need your keys to start and run your boat. We will not schedule service without keys.
- Boat Cover: If you wish to have your boat covered after winterization there will be a $25.00 charge for service.
- Engine Hours: All engine hours will be documented at the time of winterization.
- Proof of Service: We will leave a tag on the steering wheel of your boat with the date of winterization.
REMEMBER:
1. Manufacturers strongly suggest these MAINTENANCE items to be changed as follows:
- Impeller (to prevent overheating) - minimum every 2 years.
- Bellows and Boot - every 3 years (Insurance companies have disallowed claims on sinking or sunk boats due to boots not being changed every 3 years) Check with your insurance company.
- Lower unit gear lube - every 2 years.
- Oil change - every 100 hours (after 50 hours for your first oil change with a new boat)
- Gas Tank- full fuel tanks to reduce condensation in storage.
HELP US TO HELP YOU:
- Fill your gas tank upon your last usage of the season to comply with manufacturer recommendations.
- Please leave your key with us at the marina or notify us if it is already here or stored in your boat/dockbox.
- Check over the Order Form for missing information to provide a seamless transition from order to service.
- Call at least 1 week ahead of time to schedule your DEWINTERIZATION in the spring.
