We’re getting closer to that time of year. The days soaking up the sun, enjoying sunset cruises, fishing, and playing on the lake are not too far way. Prepare your boat for an enjoyable summer by taking the proper precautions when removing it from winter storage. Known as summerizing/Summerization/de-winterize, this process can extend the life of your boat and ensure your own safety and that of others during your first outing and the duration of the summer boating season. In essence, summerizing your boat is a follow-up to the winterization process you went through last fall.
Please reserve your spot early. Boats will be summerized on a first come, first served basis by date requested.
