Sailboat Maintenance – How to Keep Your Yacht in Perfect Shape
A sailboat isn’t just a vessel – it’s a lifestyle. To keep it safe, fast, and beautiful, regular maintenance is key.
⚓ 1. Rigging and sails
Check wires, winches, and lines for wear. Wash sails and repair small tears early.
🧽 2. Hull and deck
Clean thoroughly, polish, and reapply antifouling before each season.
⚙️ 3. Engine
Change oil and filters, check belts, cooling, and batteries.
🧴 4. Wood and trim
Use teak oil or marine varnish to protect wooden details from sun and salt.
🌊 5. Winter storage
Keep the boat dry, ventilated, and covered with breathable material.
