Getting your boat ready for winter? Here are six checks before shrink wrapping:

• Clean and dry the interior.
• Remove loose gear and food.
• Plan ventilation to help reduce moisture buildup.
• Use properly fitted support under the wrap.
• Arrange engine and system winterization separately from the cover.
• Choose the services you want completed before storage.

Baltic Marine Services in Lake Villa can recommend options for your boat and storage plans. You choose the services you want us to perform.

Did your boat make it through summer—but the engine was not running quite right?

Hard starting, rough idle, stalling, loss of power, overheating, misfires, smoke, or unusual noises usually will not disappear during storage. Fall and winter are often the best times to diagnose these problems, order the correct parts, and complete larger repairs without losing valuable boating days next spring.

Our latest article explains why proper diagnosis comes first, when a tune-up may not be enough, and why the off-season is a practical time for engine repair or rebuild work. This applies to outboards, sterndrives, inboards, and personal watercraft.

If you noticed a problem this summer, call or message Baltic Marine Services in Lake Villa to discuss the symptoms and arrange an evaluation.

Proper winterization is essential for boats, outboards, inboards, sterndrives, and PWCs. Even recently changed gear l**e can become contaminated with water during operation, leading to potential freezing, expansion, and gearcase damage. We are currently accepting winter projects including outboard and PWC powerhead rebuilding, cylinder boring and honing, carburetor rebuilding, lower-unit and gearcase rebuilding, and sterndrive or outdrive repair.
