Oil analysis is very useful in terms of monitoring and determining your engine’s health. It will test the lubricating oils to ensure there are no significant issues within the metal components of the engine, gear reduction units, hydraulic systems, and the fuel system. It should be completed once a year by a trusted lab and analyzed by a marine professional.

Every boat or personal watercraft has a maximum capacity in terms of weight and persons aboard recommended by the manufacturer. When planning an outing on the water, it is of the highest importance to follow these guidelines. A boat that carries a weight beyond its capacity is much more difficult to handle and leaves you vulnerable to capsizing. Not only is exceeding this capacity a violation in many states, but overloading your boat is a major safety risk.

A lift for your boat or jet ski has several advantages, including the ability to keep the craft above the water, thereby making it easy to launch, and it will cut down on the natural wear and tear a boat sustains when kept in the water.
However, as with most mechanical conveniences, it is essential to follow the manufacturer’s maintenance guidelines for boat lifts to ensure safe, long-term use. Without regular care, the boat lift may not be in proper mechanical condition, putting your craft at risk for substantial damage if it fails or collapses.
Here is a look at some of the necessary steps for maintaining a healthy boat lift that will help keep your boat safe.
