Mobile shrink wrapping and winterization in Charlevoix — Round Lake, the Pine River channel by the drawbridge, Lake Charlevoix marinas, and driveways from town to the south arm. We come to you and seal the boat tight before harbor ice.
Charlevoix boats live in a tight harbor: Round Lake, the channel under the US-31 drawbridge, and the big water of Lake Charlevoix. After haul-out, lake-effect off Lake Michigan plus a deep freeze on the inland lake will find any gap in a cover. We wrap at the municipal marina, storage lots, and home pads so the wrap sheds snow instead of holding it. See all service areas →
Wind funnels through the drawbridge channel and stacks snow on Lake Charlevoix boats sitting in yards and lots. A custom, vented shrink wrap stays tight; we winterize engines and plumbing so Round Lake freeze does not crack a fitting.
Custom, vented shrink wrap that sheds snow and stops moisture, with no sagging and no mildew.
Full engine winterization - antifreeze, fogging, stabilizer - so spring startup is trouble-free.
Drain and protect freshwater, head and washdown systems from freeze damage.
We come to your home, storage lot or marina, so you do not have to haul it to us.
Battery, cover and layup prep so your boat sits safe all winter.
Optional spring un-wrap and recycling so you are ready to launch.
A tarp that looks fine in October is a pond of ice in January. Wet snow can collapse a cover, crack gelcoat, and flood a cockpit, and an engine that is not winterized can crack a block — a $5,000+ mistake. Wrap after haul-out as drawbridge season winds down, before the first heavy snow.
