Shrink wrapping for boat


WaterPanther

Question

I'm thinking of storing my boat outdoors this Winter.  It's a 16' Alumacraft with a 40 hp Johnson.  I've been educated in winterizing boats and motors pretty well.  The motor kicked over this past Summer without a problem.

Has anyone shrinkwrapped a boat with the standard shrink wrap?  I'll have to add vents I know that.

There's some 75 gauge shrink wrap that adds up to a lot less than the $20 a linear foot for the big blue or white wrap.  And less than a indoor space.  

Whaddya think?

I kept my ProV outside for years so I wouldn't let that bother you, take batteries out, try to mouse proof it.  Can't help you with shrink wrap, I always made a device that made snow and water not pool anywhere (as best that that can be accomplished) and covered with the boat cover and then threw the cheap tarp on.  Put some plywood over tires so sun doesn't shine on them.
