Winterizing Your Jet Ski and Boat: Don't Forget Your Impeller Maintenance

11/2/2023

0 Comments

 
Introduction
As the leaves change and the temperature drops, it's a telltale sign that winter is on its way. For many water sports enthusiasts, this means it's time to say goodbye to those exhilarating rides on your jet ski and boat until the warmer months return. However, before you tuck your watercraft away for the season, it's essential to ensure that they are properly winterized. Part of this process should include checking and servicing your impeller, a crucial component that often goes overlooked. In this article, we'll discuss the importance of winterizing your jet ski and boat, the signs that your impeller might need servicing, and why the off-season is the perfect time to get it done.

Winterizing Your Jet Ski and Boat

Properly winterizing your jet ski and boat is a vital step in preserving the longevity and performance of your watercraft. Cold temperatures, ice, and snow can wreak havoc on various components, and neglecting this process can lead to costly repairs in the spring. Here's a checklist of essential steps to ensure your watercraft are ready for winter:
​
  1. Clean and Protect: Begin by thoroughly cleaning your jet ski and boat. Remove any dirt, grime, and saltwater residue. After cleaning, apply a quality wax or protective coating to shield the surface from the elements.
  2. Engine Maintenance: Change the oil, replace the oil filter, and stabilize the fuel in your watercraft's engine to prevent damage from ethanol buildup and freezing temperatures.
  3. Battery Care: Remove the battery and store it in a cool, dry place. Charge it periodically to maintain its health throughout the winter.
  4. Drain and Flush: Drain all water from your cooling system to prevent freezing. Flush the engine with antifreeze designed for marine engines.
  5. Protect Against Pests: Seal off any openings where pests might enter your watercraft. You don't want critters making a winter home in your boat or jet ski.
  6. Cover Up: Invest in a high-quality boat or jet ski cover to protect your watercraft from snow, ice, and the elements.

Checking Your Impeller

One crucial component of your jet ski and boat that's often overlooked during winterization is the impeller. The impeller is the heart of your watercraft's propulsion system, responsible for drawing in water and expelling it with force to move your vessel forward. Over time, impellers can become damaged, leading to a loss of performance and efficiency. It's essential to check your impeller for signs of wear and tear before storing your watercraft for the winter. Here's how to do it:
  1. Inspect the Blades: Look for visible signs of damage or wear on the impeller blades. Cracks, chips, or bent blades can reduce performance.
  2. Check for Debris: Remove any debris, such as seaweed, fishing lines, or small rocks, from the impeller housing. These obstructions can hinder the impeller's performance.
  3. Measure Impeller Clearance: Ensure that the impeller maintains the proper clearance within the housing, as specified by your watercraft's manufacturer. Any deviations may affect performance.

Why Winter is the Perfect Time for Impeller Servicing
Winter is an ideal time to service your impeller for several reasons:
  1. Downtime: With your jet ski and boat stored for the season, you won't miss out on any valuable water time.
  2. Professional Service: During the winter, marine service shops are less busy, making it easier to schedule impeller servicing with a professional.
  3. Preventative Maintenance: Servicing your impeller in the off-season allows you to address any issues before they become more severe and expensive to repair.

Conclusion

As the winter months approach, don't forget the importance of properly winterizing your jet ski and boat. Alongside the standard winterization steps, be sure to inspect your impeller for signs of wear and damage. The off-season is the perfect time to have your impeller serviced, ensuring your watercraft is in peak condition when the warm weather returns. By taking these steps, you'll not only protect your investment but also ensure that your jet ski and boat provide you with countless hours of water-bound enjoyment for years to come.

Florida Implements "Carfax for Boats" Law to Enhance Transparency and Safety

7/3/2023

0 Comments

 
Did you know that Florida has recently implemented a law that can impose hefty fines of up to $25,000 per occurrence on boat owners and businesses? Dubbed the "Carfax for Boats" law, it came into effect today! According to FL HB475, all boats classified as "Hull Damaged" are now required to have a hull damaged brand added to their title. This law introduces an additional layer of transparency and security when purchasing pre-owned boats in Florida, similar to the information consumers receive when buying used cars.

Starting July 1, 2023, if you are a boat owner, commercial business, or insurance agency operating in Florida and you damage a vessel without applying for a hull damaged title before transferring the ownership, you could face fines of up to $25,000 per occurrence!

The passing of this law in Florida was influenced by several key stakeholders, including Boat History Report, David Kennedy from BoatUS, David Dickerson from the National Marine Manufacturers Association (NMMA), as well as members of the Uniform Law Commission and the National Association of State Boating Law Administrators.

Caroline Mantel, our Director of Business Development, expressed her thoughts on the matter, stating, "The goal is to make boating safer; this includes boat buying and selling, being out on the water, laws that protect boaters, etc. Anything that makes boating safer helps the boating industry and other businesses associated with it."

While running a Boat History Report remains the best way to obtain the complete history of a boat, this new law represents a significant step forward for boating in Florida.

Boat Buyers Beware: Why Checking a Boat's History is Crucial Before Buying, and How Boat History Report Can Help

4/27/2023

0 Comments

 
​If you're planning to buy a boat this summer, congratulations! You're in for a lot of fun and adventure on the water. However, before you get too excited about your purchase, there's an important step you should take: check the boat's history with Boat History Report.

Boat History Report is an online service that can help you avoid buying a boat with costly hidden problems. By looking up the boat's history with its Hull Identification Number (HIN), State Registration Number, or USCG Documentation, you can get a comprehensive report that checks for damage including accidents, hurricanes, fire, theft, run aground, submerged, total loss, registration history, title history, recalls, warranties, and more.

Why is checking a boat's history important? Just like with a car, a boat may have a hidden history of accidents or other problems that can affect its performance, safety, and value. For example, a boat that has been in a serious accident may have hidden damage to its hull or engine that can cause problems down the road. A boat that has been submerged in water may have corrosion or electrical issues that can be difficult and expensive to fix. And a boat that has been stolen and recovered may have a murky ownership history that can make it difficult to sell or insure.

By using Boat History Report, you can get a clear picture of a boat's history and avoid any surprises later on. The report is easy to order online, and you can get it within minutes. The cost is reasonable, especially compared to the potential costs of buying a boat with hidden problems.

So, if you're planning to buy a boat this summer, make sure to check its history with Boat History Report https://boathistoryreport.com/. It's a small investment that can pay off big time in the long run. Happy boating!
