Types of boat storage

Renting boat storage in Lompoc, California, presents a unique opportunity to store your watercraft in an area renowned for its spectacular coastline and vibrant marine life. Whether you're in need of outdoor, covered, or indoor storage, you're sure to find an option that perfectly caters to your unique boating requirements.

Just to give you a taste of the variety, here are some of the boat storage categories that you could consider:

- Self Storage: Ideal for smaller watercraft such as speedboats or personal watercraft. With this option, boat owners usually store their boats on a trailer in residential driveways or yards, providing quick and easy access.

- Wet Storage: Also known as "dockage", this is a great option if you're a regular sailor. This type of storage keeps the boat in water, typically at a residential dock, making it perfect for easy, frequent outings to the waters around Lompoc.

- Dry Stack Storage: This is an excellent solution for storing smaller vessels, typically less than 30 feet in length. Boats in dry stack storage are stacked on multi-level racks in residential properties with large garages, providing protection from the elements and lower maintenance.

- Boat Yards: Best suited for larger boats or those that require ongoing maintenance. Boat yards provide ample space for winterization and repairs. These can often be found in commercial areas, but residential properties with large yards can also serve as boat yards.

In Lompoc, with its rich maritime heritage and the wide range of residential properties available, you'd be spoilt for choice when it comes to finding the perfect storage for your boat.

Choosing boat storage

Boat storage can seem like a daunting task, but the right location can make all the difference. Having your boat properly stored not only safeguards your investment, it also provides you with peace of mind.

  • Accessibility: When choosing storage, it's important to consider how often you'll need to access your boat. For example, if you're an avid boater, you'll want to ensure easy, frequent access to your watercraft. Conversely, if you only take your boat out occasionally, less frequent access may be acceptable.
  • Location: The chosen storage location should be in a safe neighborhood with good lighting and ideally, security features. It's also ideal if this location can be reached conveniently from your main place of residence or the marine dock. This minimizes the hassle when you decide to take your boat out on a whim.
  • Dimensions: Finally, don't forget to think about the size of the storage space. Your boat, along with its trailer if you have one, should comfortably fit into the space. Including the dimensions for a little extra space is also a good idea, as this can accommodate any boating equipment or accessories you might want to store as well. You don't want your precious asset to be crammed or jostled.

Climate considerations

In Lompoc, California, the climate is mild, with average high temperatures in the peak of summer reaching about 70 degrees Fahrenheit. During winter, the average lows can drop to around 40 degrees. Given these conditions, boat owners should take certain protective measures when storing their boats outdoors.

For warmer months, consider a UV-protective cover to shield the boat from the sun's harmful rays, which can fade the paint and degrade the hull. Ensure the cover is breathable to prevent moisture buildup that can lead to mold or mildew.

During chillier winter months, while it's not as drastic as in regions with freezing conditions, it's still essential to consider a winterization process. This could include draining the fuel and water systems to avoid possible damage from the cold. A waterproof cover can protect against rain and morning dew while a vented cover can reduce condensation.

Regardless of the time of year, keep in mind that regular cleaning and maintenance are critical to keeping your boat in top shape.
