Frequently Asked Questions

Preparing your boat for winter is key to maintaining its performance and prolonging its service life. Here we answer the most frequently asked questions about the process, types of winterization and essential care to ensure the best protection.

How long does it take to winterize a ship?

The duration of wintering depends on the owner’s needs and the sailing season. Generally, it can extend from 3 to 6 months, from late autumn to early spring.

What is the difference between dry and water wintering?

  • Dry winterization: The yacht is stored out of the water in a dry dock or hangar, protecting it from corrosion, the growth of marine organisms and the effects of weather.
  • In-water wintering: The vessel remains moored in port with regular maintenance. This is a comfortable option, but requires greater vigilance to avoid structural damage.

What maintenance is recommended during wintering?

It is recommended to perform:

  • Deep cleaning of the hull and deck.
  • Engine and mechanical systems protection with oils and antifreeze.
  • Battery check and disconnection of non-essential electrical systems.
  • Control of sails, lines and safety equipment.
  • Application of interior moisture and mildew treatments.
