Do it right Shrink Wrap your boat for winter storage

During long periods of storage, your uncovered boat is susceptible to damage
from a number of sources; rain, snow, blowing dirt and debris, bird droppings, UV
radiation and nesting birds or rodents. While conventional covers or tarps offer
some shelter from the elements, only a shrink-wrap cover gives your boat
protection that’s 100% waterproof, impossible to blow off and can withstand
heavy loads of snow or rain.

More about Shrink Wrapping your boat

Shrink wrap your boat and add that extra layer of protection to your boat as part of your winterization process. By properly shrink wrapping your boat it can last years providing waterproof and UV protection for your watercraft, machinery, or personal property.

Shrink wrap is a polyethylene film that is used to cover the object or vessel shrunken tight creating a protective covering of skin from snow, ice and debris

Shrink wrap comes in a number of sizes and thickness depending on what is needed for the area and application and duration of protection needed.

In Utah we primarily use shrink wrap for the harsh winter climate and elements to protect boats while in storage for the winter months. Shrink wrap also protects from the pollution in the air and from industrial fall out over time and will keep boat clean over the time of storage so when it is pulled out the boat is ready for use. Detail your boat and put it away ready to use in the summer.

How is shrink wrap done?

The process begins by prepping the boat by creating a frame or support structure acting as a skeleton that the film can be shrink wrapped to. This is done by using support poles and in some cases using the existing structure such as a tower on a wakeboard boat. Strapping lines are run from bow to stern and port to starboard completing the frame. A belly line is ran with a number of support lines that creates a cage or to complete the frame for the shrink wrap film.

The shrink wrap is sized and custom fitted to your boat. This shrink wrap film is pulled over and draped over the frame of the boat that we have created and secured to the belly line. This is done by folding the ends around the belly line and welding with heat creating a snug fit around the boat.

The belly line is tied down so that when heated the film won’t lift out of place. The film is completely heated and forms tightly around the skeleton or frame that was created.

Ventilation is the final step along with taping up all the seams and any holes etc.

Babies, Kids and Family Boating Trips

Kids and boating
When we purchased our first boat we my wife was pregnant with our second to the last child. She was excited for the boat but only had a few weeks of fun wakeboarding and water skiing before the doctor told her she would have to through in the towel for the season. She was able to enjoy the 2nd season but it was some what challenging with a little one. The following year she was pregnant with our last child now we had two little ones, the challenge was to find ways on the boat that would make things easier on my wife and I and the kids. Here are just a few tips

1.) Don’t forget the diaper bag, bring extra cloths, and lots of wipes

2.) Sun Screen, Sun Screen, Sun Screen, Sun Screen, Sun Screen, it is never a good time if one of the kids gets to much sun. We spend a lot of time on the water and I am glad to say kids don’t have darkened skin from exposure to the sun. Keep that sunscreen on.

3.) Even though we are an outfitter by trade we insistent about all the kids under 14 putting on there life jackets before they even reach the dock. If all the kids do it the younger ones struggle less. Most fatalities are because of no life jackets. Take the worry away and stay safe.

4.) Most small kids and babies after a little struggle with the feeling of being confined in a life vest will settle down because of the activity and the hum of motor and the rocking of the water in many cases puts them to sleep.

5.) It is always a good idea to have a covering or shade. Most boats now days have bimmi tops to provide a little protection from the sun’s rays.

6.) Try to make it fun even for those that aren’t water skiing, wakeboarding or doing some of the water sports. After every few riders we stop the boat and let everyone in the boat jump in and swim around, in life vests of course. Remember stay safe, even adults can get into trouble in deep water. Our rule is that anyone on our boat the gets into that water has to be wearing a life vest. The kids sometime will have more fun with this than any activity.

7.) Take turns with the little ones so everyone has a good time.

8.) Don’t push kids or adults for that matter to do anything that they are not comfortable with. It’s not fun if they are scared, most people have to work up to it in there own way. It’s not uncommon for parents to push there kids to wakeboarding, water ski or other water sports before they are ready and sometimes can create more fear of the waters.

9.) Can’t stress enough sun screen and life vests

Parents, little kids can be apprehensive or dare devils some will even try to hang over the edge. Many of our rescues in our outfitting happen while little ones are sitting next to there parent.
