Here's how to prep your boat for long-term storage:

Put a vented cover on or wrap your boat, if you pick outdoor storage, which can often be found at Cabela's, located at 8400 Hudson Rd, Woodbury. For other boating products, you could also visit REI, located at 1955 County Rd B2 W Schneidermans Plaza, Roseville.

You should winterize your boat, as Saint Paul winter temperatures can get below 35. First, flush and drain the engine, and add lubricant to protect it from corrosion. Drain the fuel lines or, if keeping gas in the tank, add a fuel stabilizer. Replace the engine filters and check clamps, belts, hoses, and the oil. Drain the coolant and use antifreeze. Remove moisture by cleaning and wiping down the inside and outside of the boat. Last, plug exhaust outlets to prevent rodents from entering.

It's best not to store a boat outside in the winter. Saint Paul's high winter humidity can allow mold and mildew to develop in your boat. If you need to rent outdoor boat storage, use a vented boat cover. Climate-controlled boat storage provides the best protection against high humidity.

Insurance is suggested for boat storage near Saint Paul. Your renter's or homeowner's insurance policy should cover potential theft or damage while your boat is being stored.
