Shrink wrapping is the best way to protect your boat from the weather, snow and ice, and rodents that could get in your boat. We vent our shrink wrap covers to allow for moisture to escape, but keep the rain and snow out. We will add a fragrant rodent deterrent if you wish to include that in your shrink wrap services. The cost of shrink wrapping depends on the length and beam of your boat.

The cost to summarize your boat is $140/hour and depends greatly on the size of your boat, the features of the boat, and how you stored it.
