Newton boat storage prices are $66 each month, on average.
Boat storage sizes depend on the boat type. For example, Class A boats (typically fishing dinghies) may fit in a 10 X 15 storage space, while Class 2 boats should have at least a 20 X 40 storage space. If you're renting covered or indoor boat storage, remember to measure the boat's clearance.
Use the map feature to pinpoint Newton boat storage close to your favorite fishing hole or near your home. You can also use the list view to see boat storage or enter in your zip code in your neck of the woods.

Here's how to prepare your boat for long-term storage:
Put a wrap or vented cover on your boat, if storing outside, which you can find at your local boating store.
Newton temperatures can get below 35 in the winter, so it's a good idea to winterize your boat. First, flush and drain the engine, and keep it from corroding 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 the oil, hoses, clamps, and belts. Drain the coolant and use antifreeze. Clean and wipe down the inside and outside of the boat to remove moisture. Last, prevent rodents from entering by plugging the exhaust outlets.
Avoid storing a boat outside in the winter. Newton's high humidity in the winter can increase the odds of mold and mildew having a party in your boat. If you need to rent outdoor boat storage, use a vented boat cover. Climate-controlled boat storage offers the most protection against moist air.
Insurance is recommended for boat storage in Newton. Typically, homeowner's or renter's insurance will cover any theft or damage while your boat is being stored, but check your policy to confirm.
