Maintain Tire Pressure

Inflate tires to the maximum recommended PSI before storage. Underinflated tires can develop flat spots during extended marinas, dry dock, indoor, and outdoor boat storage, especially on concrete surfaces.

Consider a Vehicle Cover

Even in indoor marinas, dry dock, indoor, and outdoor boat storage, a breathable vehicle cover protects against dust, accidental dings from neighboring vehicles, and light abrasion.

Check for Drainage

Outdoor and covered marinas, dry dock, indoor, and outdoor boat storage lots need proper drainage. Standing water under your vehicle accelerates rust, attracts pests, and can cause electrical issues.
