Winterizing Seadoo

hd333 · 08-26-2016, 10:42 AM

What is a reasonable price to get a Seadoo winterized and tuned up so it is ready to go in the spring?

Is DaSilvas the place to go?

I have always had great luck at HK in Laconia and the prices are always fair. The price would depend on what you need from pick up and delivery to winter storage.

If you want to give them a call and ask for their prices for service: 603-524-0100

Note that there may also be a need for spring preparation based upon what you do for winterization.

If you fog the engine, you will probably have to replace the spark plugs for the summer.
Typically, I pull the battery and put it on a charger over the winter which means that it has to be put back in for the summer.

I use Dasilva, I haven't shopped his maintenance prices and he is probably not the cheapest, but I've never had a problem with the work so I don't tamper with success.

Always have my husband do winterizing (follow directions in the book), and then every spring Da Silva's for summe

rizing! They have done a terrific job maintaining my 1997 SeaDoo and it runs like a top year after year. Highly recommend them, the mechanics are great!

DaSilva or HK are both good choices, however, winterizing is a "4 letter word" right now
