Winterizing

Winterizing

Winterizing a marine engine is the single most important maintenance duty a boater can perform. If it's done right, very little work needs to be done in preparing a boat for sea the following Spring. More to the point, winterizing greatly extends the life of the power train by protecting all of its varied components from the ravages of corrosion, freezing and dormancy. Without fogging the cylinders with a protective coating, severe rust occurs. Without flushing the cooling system, salt crystals corrode cooling passages all winter long. If you neglect to drain the gear oil case, trapped water can freeze, expand and destroy the expensive housing. To help you prepare for winter storage, here's a guide for the winterizing of sterndrives and inboards. Your biggest expense will be for spark plugs and essential fluids such as engine oil, gear oil, fogging oil and antifreeze. The cost of those necessities is money well spent, especially when measured against what it would cost to repair the damage if you were to short change the winter lay-up procedure.
