Drain the fuel lines or, if keeping gas in the tank, add a fuel stabilizer. Replace the engine filters and check belts, hoses, clamps, and the oil. Drain the coolant and use antifreeze. Clean and wipe down the inside and outside of the boat to remove moisture. Last, plug exhaust outlets to prevent rodents from entering.It's not suggested to store a boat outside in the winter. Louisville's high wintertime humidity can increase the chances of mold and mildew having a party in your boat. If you need to rent outdoor boat storage, use a vented boat cover. Indoor, climate-controlled boat storage offers the highest amount of protection from moist air.
