Boat Winterization Service in San Angelo, TX: Protect Your Vessel in San Angelo, TX

Comprehensive San Angelo, TX Winterization Packages

Our service packages cover every component susceptible to freeze damage, corrosion, and long-term storage degradation. We tailor the service based on your boat type (inboard, outboard, cruiser, or pontoon).

• Engine & Drive Train Protection: For inboard/stern-drive engines (gas or diesel), we flush the raw water system and circulate marine-grade non-toxic antifreeze through the engine block, manifolds, and cooling lines. For outboards, we properly fog the cylinders and stabilize the fuel system to protect the engine's internal components.
• Fuel System Stabilization: We add premium marine fuel stabilizer to your gas tank and run the engine to ensure the treated fuel reaches the carburetor or injectors. This prevents phase separation, gum deposits, and fuel degradation during the off-season storage months, ensuring easy starting in the spring.
• Freshwater & Sanitation System Care: This is critical for cruisers and pontoons with amenities. We drain all freshwater tanks, hot water heaters, and lines, then flush the system with non-toxic marine antifreeze. We also service and protect all heads, waste tanks, and shower sumps against freezing and microbial growth.
• Lower Unit/Gearcase Service: As part of the winterizing process, we inspect and drain the lower unit gear oil. This is the perfect time to check for water intrusion (indicated by milky oil), which can be caused by damaged seals, preventing catastrophic gear failure upon spring launch.
• Battery & Electrical Disconnect: We disconnect batteries, inspect terminals for corrosion, and ensure they are either placed on a trickle charger or removed for climate-controlled storage. This prevents total discharge and extends the lifespan of your marine batteries over the winter months.
