The Texas sun is out, and the lakes are calling! After a period of winter storage, your boat needs more than just a quick rinse to be truly ready for a safe and reliable season. Boat Summarization (or De-Winterization) is a critical, multi-step process that reverses the protective measures of winterization and rigorously inspects all systems, ensuring peak performance and preventing breakdowns on your first trip out.
At Lake Kings, we specialize in a detailed Spring Boat Commissioning service designed for the unique demands of the Texas boating season, where high temperatures and long hours on the water are the norm. Our technicians systematically inspect, test, and prepare every component, so you can transition from the dock to the wake without a hitch. Trust us to ensure your boat is Launch Ready, guaranteed.
Comprehensive Spring Commissioning & Summarization Services
Our complete summarization service ensures that every system, from the engine block to the head, is safely brought back online, inspected for issues, and optimized for performance in the hot Texas summer.
Core Summarization Services in Texas:
- Engine De-Winterization & Start-Up: We drain and flush all antifreeze from the engine block, cooling lines, and manifolds, replacing drain plugs and hoses as needed. We reconnect batteries, perform the first seasonal engine start-up, check all fluids (oil, power steering, transmission), and inspect for any leaks or irregularities under load.
- Fuel System Check & Testing: We inspect all fuel lines, filters, and connections for any signs of degradation or leaks that may have occurred during storage. We verify the quality of stabilized fuel, bleed air from diesel fuel systems, and ensure optimal fuel delivery pressure for reliable engine performance.
- Freshwater & Sanitation System Activation: For cruisers and pontoons, we flush all marine antifreeze from freshwater tanks and lines, sanitize the potable water system, and activate the hot water heater and water pump. We also inspect the sanitation (head) system components, ensuring seals and pumps are fully operational.
- Gearcase/Lower Unit Reassembly & Inspection: The lower unit is checked to ensure all drain and vent screws are properly sealed following the winterization fluid service. We inspect the propeller, hub assembly, and steering components, ensuring smooth and safe operation.
- Electrical System and Accessories Check: We fully reconnect and test all marine batteries, load-testing them for the season. We verify the functionality of all navigation lights, bilge pumps, blowers, gauges, audio systems, and electronics, ensuring your boat meets all safety requirements.
- Trailer and Safety Inspection: Your trailer is inspected for road-readiness, including checking tire pressure, wheel bearings, lights, and trailer brake functionality. We also verify onboard safety gear (flares, PFDs, fire extinguishers) meets current standards before you hit the highway.
