How to Maintain Your Fiberglass Boat

When you have a fiberglass boat you know all of the wonderful benefits that they offer! Fiberglass boats are one of the best options to use for any of your boating needs. Whether it’s used for sport fishing or for crabbing, fiberglass boats are your go to boat, and at Dixon’s Marine we have the best fiberglass boats to offer!  However, when using our beloved boats we don’t always use them in the best weather or ocean conditions, which takes a toll on every part of the boat. At Dixon’s Marine we do offer fiberglass boat repairs for any repairs you may need, although there is still routine preventative boat maintenance you can do to help keep your boat on the high sea! 

1. After every major sea outing it’s good to do a thorough check over your boat to look for any cracks, (even the tiniest ones), check the pump, jack stands, and the hardware. 
2. Once, the boat has been examined give it a good wash and wax to ensure nothing from the ocean is left on your boat causing rotting over time. The wax will create that extra layer of protection from properties that are outside of the water, as well like the damaging effects the sun can have on paint.
3. Lastly, it’s extremely important to use a winter cover in Mother Nature’s harsh cold months. Anything can happen when a boat isn’t properly stored for the winter; ice can have a long term damaging effect.

These are just some basic ways to help keep your boat on the sea! If you have any other questions about boat repairs or if you would like to inquire about our Dixon’s Marine boats call us toll free at 888-569-6342.
