Is your dragon boat going into hibernation? Here are some things you should do!
1. Thoroughly clean the boat inside and outside.
2. Open all inspection hatches (leave them open during winter storage).
3. Lift the boat at the bow and then at the stern and remove any water from the interior.
4. Check the seal between the deck rail and the hull. If any damage is found, repair it immediately.
5. Record any other damage to the boat and create a repair plan.
6. Clean the contacts on the CoxBox mini system plugs and treat them with contact spray. Test their functionality.
7. Charge the CoxBox mini controller (Note: Do not leave it connected to the charger after charging!).
8. Store the boat in a dry and well-ventilated place, if possible.
9. If storing the boat upside down outdoors, do not place it on the deck rail. You can store the boat on the benches.
10. Once you've done all that, look forward to the next season.
