HOUSEBOAT HAULING FOR REPAIR
We offer professional hauling of your houseboat out of the lake for repairs or inspection. The total cost is based on the boat's dimensions: Length × Width + $1800, which covers hauling out of the lake, up to 24 hours on land, and launching the boat back into the water.
Need more time? Additional days on the trailer are $1000 per day after the initial 24-hour period.
This service ensures safe, efficient handling of your houseboat for any necessary maintenance or work.

Winterization
Georgia winters may be mild, but your boat still needs proper care. Don’t let cold snaps catch you off guard—protect your boat with professional winterization. Prep now, so you're ready to hit the water the moment spring rolls around. Service includes:
- Fuel Stabilization: Add stabilizer to the remaining fuel to prevent breakdown during storage.
- System Circulation: Run the engine to circulate the stabilizer throughout the entire fuel system.
- Cylinder Fogging: Apply fogging oil to coat the cylinder walls and protect against internal rust.
- Drain Water: Remove all water from the engine to eliminate any risk of freezing damage.
- Antifreeze Protection: Pump marine-safe antifreeze into the engine block for added freeze protection.
- Battery Care: Disconnect batteries to prevent drain—we recommend using a battery tender to maintain charge and extend battery life.
- Pro Tip: Store your boat with a full fuel tank to prevent condensation, which can lead to costly fuel system issues down the road.
Service Tips
Expert Boat Repair Services by Coffey's Marine
Outboard Engines:
When storing your outboard boat on a trailer, tilt the engine all the way down to allow any residual water to drain from the lower unit—this helps prevent freezing and potential damage. We also recommend storing your boat with a full fuel tank treated with the proper amount of fuel stabilizer. A full tank reduces the chance of water forming from condensation. For added protection, spray fogging oil into the carburetors to lubricate internal engine components.
Inboard/Outboard (I/O) Engines:
If you're storing your I/O boat outdoors or anywhere temperatures may drop below freezing, it’s essential to fully drain the engine block and manifolds to prevent cracking. As with outboards, store the boat with a full fuel tank and appropriate stabilizer. Fogging oil should also be applied to the carburetors to protect the engine during storage.
Whether you prefer DIY maintenance or want expert help, our technicians are ready to perform all these services—and more. Bring your boat to us, and we’ll ensure its properly prepared for storage and ready to run when you are.
