As the sailing season winds down, it’s time to prepare your boat for the colder months ahead. Laying up – also known as winterising – helps protect your vessel from damp, frost, and damage during the winter months.
Whether you are keeping your boat in the water or taking it out, we have what you need. Our boat winterisation essentials help you keep everything in great shape until spring.
Protect Your Boat Inside and Out
From boat heaters and dehumidifiers to tarpaulins and boat covers, we stock everything you need to guard against moisture and frost. Keep your cabin dry, protect your deck gear, and prevent mould and mildew with trusted brands used by UK boat owners.
Care for Engines, Fuel & Systems
Cold weather can take its toll on your boat’s engine and fuel systems. Our fuel stabilisers, antifreeze, and engine winterisation kits help you avoid costly damage and make spring commissioning easier. Don’t forget to check your fuel tanks and filters, change your oil and flush your cooling system before winter sets in.
Get Ready for Winter Storage Projects
Winter is the perfect time for onboard projects and maintenance. Stock up on cleaners, lubricants, paints and sealants to make the most of the off-season. Whether you’re polishing your hull or refreshing your fittings, Force 4 Chandlery has all the products and advice you need.
