The maintenance plan is divided into two sections: maintenance afloat and wintering.
Maintenance afloat is carried out at regular intervals throughout the year and includes the following:
- Regular cleaning of the deck and the stainless steel
- Airing the boat
- Regular starting-up of the engines and checking the flaps (boats with engines)
- Checking that all the pumps, valves and all the components of the electrical circuits work properly
- Checking battery voltage and charge
- Other tasks
Wintering includes:
- Cleaning the whole boat and greasing the winches (yachts) and the windlass
- Checking the rigging and the sails,
- Checking the tiller system
- Checking lifelines and life rafts
- Comprehensive cleaning of the bottom
- Checking tenders and wintering outboard motors
- Heating the boat and putting dehumidifiers in place
- Others
These checking and maintenance programmes mean that we can detect any problems early and communicate them to the owner, so that we can discuss what actions should be taken (repair, replacement, etc.).
If significant work is envisaged, we always supply a written estimate.
