bucketmouth64 Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 I am looking to store my boat at another location indoors other than residence for the first time. I was wondering what questions I should ask about boat storage such as liability issues, or will I need to sign any kind of waiver? The prices I've called range from $200-280 from now until May, is this about the norm? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bkerschner70 Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Sounds reasonable from what I've seen. I found an ad on a-sales-site for storage in a nice heated building in St Paul. I called on it, turns out it's the FFA building on the State Fair Grounds. Would be a great spot to put a boat but for winterizing and storage they wanted around $500 I believe. I think for just the storage was at least $350. My uncle said I could put it in his pole barn so that's what I've decided, it's free. Dirt floor though so I don't know if there is anything I need to be aware of from that aspect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkunkedAgain Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 I actually put my boat on jack stands for the winter so that it keeps the tires from flat spotting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bucketmouth64 Posted October 3, 2011 Author Share Posted October 3, 2011 That's what I normally do. I will have to ask wherever I decide to store boat if they will allow me to do this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
