Battery Storage
The procedure for battery winterization
and storage is as follows:
❏ Turn battery switch to OFF.
❏ Remove engine batteries and generator
battery (if so equipped) from their respec-
tive compartments (See Mechanical
Layout in the Schematics Section of this
Owners Manual, which illustrates the
location of the engine and generator
batteries).
❏ Place batteries on a wooden pallet or
bench and store in an area where tem-
peratures remain above freezing.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT store batteries on a
concrete surface, such as a garage floor,
as they will tend to discharge.
❏ Keep batteries fully charged during
storage. Periodic charging (once a month)
with a battery charger set on a low amper-
age charge is recommended. Check the
battery electrolyte levels regularly. Add
electrolyte, if needed.
Refer to the battery literature included
with your owner’s packet for additional
information concerning the care and
storage of your batteries
Interior Preparation
The procedure for preparing the interior of
your yacht for winter storage is as follows:
❏ Remove all items that will hold moisture
(towels, PFD’s, blankets, clothing, canvas,
etc.) from the interior of the yacht to pre-
vent mold and mildew formation.
❏ Remove all electronic equipment and
items of value that are detachable.
❏ Remove all garbage and trash.
❏ Thoroughly clean the interior of your
yacht. Clean all cabinets, drawers and
cupboards. Allow the cabin area to air dry
for at least one day, if possible.
❏ Stand or prop up all mattresses and
cushions that are to remain on board
during storage to allow air circulation
around them.
❏ Place Mildew Pacs in various locations
within the interior of your yacht to help
prevent mold and mildew formation during
storage (Refer to the manufacturer’s rec-
ommendation for the quantity and location
required).
