Boat Winterization
Boat winterization should be a top priority as the summer months wind down and fall and winter roll in. Winterizing your boat can help prevent damage and costly repairs to vital engine parts. Cold weather can cause liquids left in your boat to freeze and expand, causing lines, pumps, and engines to crack or break. Wholesale Marine offers a full range of winterizing products including marine antifreeze, boat heaters and dehumidifiers, boat shrink wrap, and boat winterizing kits.
Whether you are an experienced marine technician looking for winterizing products or a DIYer. We carry only the leading brands in boat winterization products including Starbrite, Shrink Wrap International, Camco, and Sierra to ensure you have everything you need to get the job done.
Boat Winterization Process Made Easy with Wholesale Marine
To start the process, it is important to change the oil to protect your engine from rust and corrosion. The Jabsco Little Pal Marine Oil Change Pump is a multipurpose hand pump that can be used to drain engine oil from your engine. We also carry a full line of marine engine oil and oil filters. It is also a good idea to drain and replace gear oil.
Fuel systems also need to be protected, and adding a fuel stabilizer to the fuel tank can help prevent the fuel from breaking down and allow contaminants to take over and cause poor engine performance. Add Sta-Bil Diesel Fuel Stabilizer and run the engine for a few minutes to treat the entire system.
Protect your internal engine parts by flushing and draining water and coolants. Water expands when it freezes, possibly causing engine damage. Boat Winterization kits like the Starbrite Winterization Kit comes with everything you need to make winterize your engine a breeze.
Winterizing may look like a tedious task that is not needed, but in the end, it can save you thousands of dollars in costly repairs. Wholesale Marine is stocked with everything you need to ensure your boat is protected from the cold weather.
