Shrink Wrapping Services… Why Wrap your Boat?
New England winters are tough on exposed boats. Water gets into small cracks in wood and fiberglass and expands as it freezes, resulting in cracks and breaks.
An exposed boat is also a dirty boat, filled with leaves and debris. While it can be swept out in spring, the weathering effect leaves your boat a little more degraded every year.
Protect your investment by winterizing with shrink wrapping!
