Hi guys,

yes I am a bit early but I would like to prepare and learn how to store my 210 sp 2011, anybody has a step by step instruction on how to store it?

What do I need to buy?

thanks

Stef

Sorry, can't help you there. No real winter hear in CA, so I get to use the boat year round.

Hi Stef,

The Seadoo operator's manual covers winterization in the "Storage" section. Here's a link if you don't have yours or don't want to dig it out:

http://www.operators...2011/2627EN.pdf

For basic winterization (i.e. no oil change or spark plug change), you will need a can of XPS spray lube, fuel stabilizer, the exhaust flush adaptor, and a source of compressed air.

If changing oil and/or spark plugs, you would need a fluid extractor of some kind to get the oil out and some anitseize lube for the plugs. If you are doing this youfself there is actually a maintanence kit that BRP sells that will describe the oil change procedure in detail. It should be available at your local dealer and is actually reasonably priced for what you get (at least it was at my dealer).

The manual indicates that you can clear the exhaust manifold and intercooler (if 430HP) with compressed air through the flush port so you don't need to add antifreeze. I personally just used the compressed air method. But I live in NC and keep my boat in the garage so I'm not concerned about freezing so maybe someone else further north can comment on prepping the engine for freezing conditions.

Thanks, I will use the compressed air method for sure but wondering if I need to use antifreeze in the motor itself....


as for oil, fuel stabilizer etc, I am use to this....been driving BRP snowmobile for a long time

thanks for the link
