Terry shares his winter boat trailer maintenance routine that could potentially save you big money.
Most times, the last things that get any TLC are our boat trailers. They are the unsung heroes for boat owners but without them, getting from one lake to another would be nearly impossible. For the most part, they don’t need much maintenance but when something does go wrong they can be a real booger to get fixed.
They get jiggled, wet then dry, find every pothole and routine care is often an afterthought. Wiring gets pinched, pulled, unplugged and plugged and sits in rust and water most of its life. There’s no better better time to give it a once-over than the winter months.
General maintenance should be ongoing, but at least once a year there are a few things worth doing. Whether you have a used boat or a brand new boat, this will take headaches out of the equation.
