Summary

Whether you live way up north, or down in the south, the change of the seasons usually means doing some sort of preparatory maintenance on your boat. Whether that be winterizing the motor, preparing the batteries, or covering it for the season, there are always good ways to ensure that your boat will stay in the best condition. Down in South Florida, we don’t have to worry about the cold as much, but we do have to make sure that it is well protected from the sun and the salt. In this episode we have a special guest, Scott Shimtov of Empire Boat Covers on to tell us about the importance of using a cover in the offseason. We discuss different cover options, and why you want to keep your boat protected with a cover. If you are going to spend a lot of money on a boat, you should invest in a good way to protect it.
