What winterization includes

Winterizing prepares the boat for months without use. It means changing oil and filters, protecting the cooling circuit, draining or treating the fresh-water system, disconnecting and maintaining the batteries, ventilating or dehumidifying the interior and covering the boat.

It can be done afloat, at the berth, or ashore in a yard or shed. Ashore the hull rests and you can do the antifouling and other jobs before the season.

Ashore or afloat

In mild areas like much of the Mediterranean, many boats winter afloat with regular checks. In cold climates or for small boats, dry or indoor storage is the norm.

In Costa Blanca, compare the price per season, whether it includes lifting and relaunch, yard security and whether the yard gives you a report of the work done.

Boat winterization in Costa Blanca: frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to winterize a boat?

For 6 to 15 metre boats, a 4 to 6 month winter ranges roughly from €300 to €6,000, depending on afloat, hard-standing or indoor storage and the work included.

When should a boat be winterized?

At the end of the season, usually between October and November. The earlier you book a dry spot, the more options you have.

Is it better to winter ashore or afloat?

Ashore the hull dries out and you avoid fouling and osmosis, but the lift costs money. Afloat is cheaper and practical in mild climates if someone checks the boat regularly.

What happens if I don't winterize the engine?

Salt water and damp corrode an idle engine, frost can crack the block and stale fuel causes starting problems. A simple preparation avoids expensive repairs.
