Week of October 20, 2013: Winterizing

Well, as much as I hate to see it, the weather forecast is predicting freezing temps.  This means that it's time to winterize your boat.  There are a few simple tasks to perform to keep your boat healthy during cold winter months so that it's ready for the next season of boating.  You will need to change both the motor oil and the lower unit oil. 

Your boat will also need a dehumidifier, such as NO DAMP, to help prevent mold and mildew. You'll find this at our store for less than $10.00.

 Also remember to make sure your boat is clean and dry before you cover it.  

Call or visit Stokley's Marine for any/all of your boating needs.   

Also, come see us Feb. 6 - 9, 2014 at the Lexington Boat Show, and remember, boating season will be back before you know it!

Week of October 6, 2013: Let's Go to the Lake!

Fall weather is great, and do we ever have a great next 2 weeks coming up! There is very little rain coming and highs in the 60's to 80's. Please don't miss the chance to get out and enjoy the gift that God has given us in the outdoors.

The leaves are changing, the Shad are schooling and the Bass are going to be biting. You need to invite someone in your life that would be amazed with the beautiful water ways of Kentucky. It is too nice to pass up this weather. Cold weather will be with us all too soon so make a plan to..... what is it I say? 

Oh yes

Week of September 29, 2013: Last Tank

When you are thinking about your last outing for the year, think about your gas choice. Make the last tank of gas a tank of high test, 93 octane. Gas loses its octane when sitting over the winter and a tank of 93 will be lower by spring time. Make the last tank a good one. 

We also have to worry about the ethanol in our gas these days. One ounce of Mercury Quickare for every 10 gallons of gas will protect your gas and fuel system.
