Boat storage prices in Brookfield are $104 each month, on average.
The ideal size of boat storage depends. Class 2 boats should have at least a 20 X 40 storage space, while Class A boats (typically fishing dinghies) may fit in a 10 X 15 storage unit. If you're renting indoor or covered boat storage, remember to check the boat's clearance.
You can find places to store a boat near your home. Use the map, access the list view, or type in your zip code to see convenient boat storage options throughout town.
Here are some popular features for boat storage:
Any-time access: Want the flexibility of getting to your boat any moment of the day? Not a problem. Book a Brookfield boat storage unit that provides flexible access.
Top-notch protection: Give your boat the safest storage unit possible with a listing that offers security features like a padlock, security cameras, an access code, or 24/7 surveillance.
Read these tips for storing a boat long-term:
Perform any necessary repairs.
If you're opting for dry vs. wet storage, disconnect the battery. If you go with wet boat storage, the battery should be left on board and connected.
Flush out the engine and store it vertically, if possible.
Add fuel stabilizer to the gas tank.
Spray vinyl with a protective spray.
For long-term boat trailer storage, put wood blocks under the wheels to prevent tire damage.
Put a vented cover on or wrap your boat, if storing outside, which can typically be found at your local boating shop.
Brookfield winter temperatures can get below 35, so you should winterize your boat. First, flush and drain the engine, and protect it from corrosion by adding lubricant. If you're keeping gas in the tank, add a fuel stabilizer. If not, drain the fuel lines. Replace the engine filters and check belts, hoses, clamps, and the oil. Drain the coolant and use antifreeze. Remove moisture by cleaning and wiping down the exterior and interior of the boat. Last, prevent rodents from entering by plugging the exhaust outlets.
Try not to store a boat outside in the winter. Brookfield's high winter humidity can allow mildew and mold to develop in your boat. If you need to rent outdoor boat storage, use a vented boat cover. Indoor, climate-controlled boat storage offers the best protection against high humidity.
Yes, you should get insurance. Your homeowner's or renter's insurance policy most likely covers potential damage or theft while your boat is in storage.
