The Complete Marine Care Calendar

Consistent maintenance keeps your marine vessel in top condition. Here is a month-by-month care calendar:

January to March

During winter storage, check your boat monthly. Inspect covers for damage, check for moisture buildup and ensure ventilation. Charge the battery every two months. This is also a good time to plan upgrades.

April to June

Prepare for the season with a full inspection. Clean and wax the hull, service the engine and check all systems. Inspect upholstery for winter damage and clean or repair as needed.

July to September

Peak season requires peak maintenance. Rinse after every use, clean weekly and apply UV protectant monthly. Check safety equipment and keep a maintenance log of all activities.

October to December

Prepare for winterization. Schedule professional service, deep clean the entire vessel and address any damage before storage. Apply protective coatings to all surfaces before covering.
