Winter Storage
Winter in the Adriatic is a challenge for yacht systems due to high humidity and stormy winds. Sign up for an annual subscription and you can be confident that your yacht will be safe until the next season. You won’t have to think about where and how to store your yacht, worry about availability, obtain permits for oversized cargo, preserve systems, or deal with other concerns related to seasonal storage.
Description of services
- Lifting and launching: Organization and supervision of the process of lifting the yacht at the end of the season and launching it at the beginning. Includes installation on keel blocks, checking the correct positioning of slings, and initial high-pressure cleaning of the hull from fouling.
- Transportation to storage: Safe transportation of the yacht from the marina crane area to the hangar or storage area on a specialized trailer or trailer.
- Antifreeze flushing: Complete displacement of seawater from the cooling circuits of engines, generators, and air conditioning systems using environmentally friendly marine antifreeze. This prevents heat exchangers from bursting at sub-zero temperatures and blocks corrosion inside the channels.
- Fuel and water system protection: Addition of fuel stabilizers to prevent diesel fuel separation and drainage of fresh water tanks/boilers to protect against freezing and bacteria growth.
- Storage in a closed hangar: Placing the boat in a dry, well-ventilated area protected from direct sunlight, precipitation, and sea salt.
- Packaging (Shrink Wrap / Covers): Covering the yacht with a standard cover or wrapping it in shrink wrap (Shrink Wrap) with the installation of ventilation valves. This creates a "cocoon" that completely prevents dust, bird droppings, and moisture from entering the deck and teak.
- Guarded area: Placing the vessel in a secure area with 24/7 video surveillance and access control.
- Battery monitoring: Regularly check the voltage on all groups of batteries (starting, service, and generator batteries).
- Cyclic recharging: Maintain the optimal battery charge level during periods of inactivity to prevent deep discharge and plate sulfation, which can extend the battery life by 1.5 to 2 times.
- Guarded area
- Video surveillance
- Regular inspection of the integrity of the tents or film (especially after strong winds) to ensure that the protection is airtight.
- Lifting and lowering: Organization and control of the process of lifting the yacht at the end of the season and lowering it at the beginning. This includes installation on keel blocks, checking the correct positioning of the slings, and initial high-pressure washing of the hull to remove fouling.
- Transportation to a storage facility: Safe transportation of the yacht from the marina's crane area to a storage hangar or facility using a specialized trailer or trawl.
- Antifreeze flushing: Complete displacement of seawater from the cooling circuits of engines, generators, and air conditioning systems using environmentally friendly marine antifreeze. This prevents the breakage of heat exchangers at sub-zero temperatures and blocks corrosion inside the channels.
