Why Winterization Matters
As temperatures drop, boat winterization becomes one of the most important steps in protecting your investment. Without proper preparation, freezing temperatures can cause engine damage, cracked blocks, corrosion, and fuel system issues — all of which can lead to expensive spring repairs.
At Bergen Performance Marine in Wyckoff, New Jersey, we help boat owners safeguard their vessels every fall with comprehensive winterization services designed to keep your boat in top condition until next season.
What Happens If You Skip Winterization
Neglecting proper winter prep can cause:
-
🚫 Frozen and cracked engine blocks
-
⚙️ Fuel system damage from ethanol separation
-
💧 Corrosion in cooling systems and exhaust manifolds
-
🧊 Burst hoses and fittings from trapped water
-
💸 Costly spring repairs and delayed launch times
Winterization is more than storage — it’s protection against thousands of dollars in preventable damage.
